Creative Painting Workshop
Come alone, or come with friends and enjoy three wonderful, creative hours of watercolour painting, guided by one of our qualified art teachers.
There will be a gourmet antipasto platter provided, with cured meats, char grilled vegetables and assorted cheeses, served with bread rolls and GF crackers — and you can always head to Cam’s after the workshop for a debrief and a glass of chilled red.
All equipment and materials will be provided – you just need to bring yourself (your friends!) and your creative curiosity. Aprons will also be provided, but we would encourage you to wear clothes you don’t mind getting a spot of paint on.

Coco Kids Creativity Class (suitable for ages 8 – 12)
Bring your family to the beautiful surrounds of the Abbotsford Convent and let their creative juices flow!
An engaging and explorative 2-hour session of painting with our watercolour specialist and art teacher. Each child will leave with a finished work of art, made by THEM!
This session is suitable for children 8 – 12-year-olds. If you’re the parent or guardian of a slightly younger child that might like to attend, you will be required to stay for the session. If your child can stay without your supervision, feel free to take a break with a delicious hot drink — or even cold, bubbly one! — at the Convent Bakery or Cam’s Kiosk.
Please make sure to dress your child in comfortable, ‘art-proof’ clothing. All children will be provided with an apron, but the kids will be encouraged to be kids!
