Celebrating Creativity: From the Studio to the High Country and Beyond!

Jul 7, 2025

Before we proceed further with what has already been an incredible start to our Festival Carnival Art Workshops for the young budding artists of Lavender Art Studios, we would like to take a moment to highlight our inspiring Adult Art Class Program.


Following our highly successful April High Country Retreat, this last Term 2 we enjoyed a wonderful visit and workshop at the National Gallery of Australia. It was very special to return after such a long time away—we hadn’t visited since 2019—and we were warmly welcomed by the exhibition Cézanne to Giacometti: Highlights from Museum Berggruen / Neue Nationalgalerie. We also felt privileged to facilitate a workshop in the Australian collection.


In addition to offering exceptional art classes in charcoal, pastel, oil painting, specialised techniques, and other mediums, with thanks, we have recently been notified by students that a number of them are entering the Lanyon Homestead Art Competition and Exhibition. Greg wishes every success to all those entering the competition, both from Lavender Art Studios and beyond.


Over the next few weeks, Greg will be away from the studio at his own Lavender Art Studios contemporary homestead in the Snowy Mountains, planning the next Adult High Country Art Retreat.


Bookings are now open for adults enrolled in the studio's adult art program who wish to join us for the October long weekend retreat. Numbers are limited.


With creativity and connection,

from Lavender Art Studio

More Than an Art Class

At Lavender Art Studios, students become part of a progressive, professional art-learning environment where skills, confidence and creativity are developed over time. Our highly experienced teaching team provides demonstrations, individual guidance and ongoing support throughout each class, with multiple members of our studio team working within the art workshop environment. This allows students to receive assistance as they need it while also developing the confidence and independence to create their own artwork.

 

A Place to Grow as an Artist

Established in 1999, Lavender Art Studios offers a dedicated studio environment where children, young people and adults can continue developing their art practice over many years. Students are introduced to an extensive range of traditional and contemporary media and are encouraged to build skills as they progress. From our youngest Little Lavenders through to teenage specialised workshops and adult art classes, our focus remains on quality teaching, individual artistic development and the enjoyment of creating art.

​

Lavender Art Studios Opens Possibilities

Whether creating art for enjoyment, personal development or a future creative profession, learning art at Lavender Art Studios opens artistic possibilities towards building artistic skills, confidence, creativity and a lifelong appreciation of the visual arts. Many of our students have gone on to undertake tertiary studies in the arts, pursue creative professions, exhibit their work, and receive awards and recognition for their artistic achievement.

Lavender Art Studios acknowledges First Australians and recognises their continuous connection to country, community and culture. We acknowledge the Ngunnawal and Ngambri People as the Traditional Owners of the land we live and work on.
