Get ready for an opportunity to learn and hone your art skills with a selection of workshops offered over nine days at the biannual Buderim Craft Cottage Winter School 2025 running Saturday 5 July to Sunday 13 July.
Cottage President Jenny Williams said preparations are already underway for the well-known event.
“This major event in the Arts calendar plays a significant role in fostering the local art scene. The impressive list of tutors signifies our commitment to be a place of learning, community, and arts hub contributing to the vibrant art scene on the Sunshine Coast,” she said.
Workshops in the program will cater for a range of interests. Included are traditional arts of watercolour and acrylic, together with contemporary mixed media, silversmithing, collagraphy, drawing, calligraphy. Workshops will appeal to beginner through to those wanting to strengthen and deepen their craft.
Eleven South East Queensland and Interstate artists have accepted invitations to tutor at the Winter School.
Internationally recognized Launceston-based pastel artist, Leoni Duff, will be a highlight of the Winter School. As will be Melbourne-based master calligrapher, Gyoung Hee Lee.
Our guest “Artist Talk” by artist and art therapist Ali Gillett will explore how understanding our sub-conscious can transform how we create. There will be no more “artist block” for those who attend this talk.
All workshops will be held at Buderim Craft Cottage 5 Main Street Buderim.
Buderim Craft Cottage website in mid-March will have full details on artists, schedules, materials and how to book. Bookings open 1 April. www.buderimcraftcottage.com.au
