NSW Workshops
ATASDA workshops are tutored by experienced members, accredited teachers and visiting interstate and international artists.
Workshops are open to beginners and advanced participants unless otherwise stated. Our workshop organisers recommend you get in early as workshops fill quickly! Generally places are allocated on a first-in basis.
Participants should bring their own lunch and cup. Morning and afternoon refreshments are provided.
Workshops are open to non-members by payment of a higher fee. Non-members are encouraged to join the Association. Note that non-members will not be included if a ballot is held for places (such as when demand is much higher than places allow).
