Build your skills, confidence and creative practice over 12 months through a series of hands-on workshops, networking events and exhibition opportunities with Mary Valley Artslink.

This program is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland.

The funding meant the group could offer skills building across diverse creative practices, president Heinke Butt said.

“We will deliver 12 workshops over 12 months, starting with an intensive drawing fundamentals workshop on Saturday 16 May,” she said.

Participants can learn from experienced artists, connect with other creatives and gain practical tools to grow their work—whether they are emerging or established.
