Education & Workshops

For upcoming workshops click here.

Across the province many artists and creative professionals offer workshops in a wide variety of technical and artistic skills from painting to jewellery making, from weaving to carving - there is a world of art education to explore in BC.

Immersing ourselves in arts and culture inspires us to develop our own creativity and through the engaged teaching process in artist run workshop we can begin to master new skills and experiences that will enable discovery and growth while supporting the vital role of artists in our communities.

In the arts, learning from the masters is a unique opportunity. To master a skill, a lifetime of practice and devotion is required; needless to say, learning something on your own to the point of mastery just isn’t realistic for most of us. The perfect alternative is to spend a concentrated amount of time with someone who is already a master!

Develop new skills quickly under the guidance of professional artists and masters of craft and advance your art education. Browse our list of upcoming and ongoing workshops.
