WAA Classes & Workshops
The Whitehorse Arts Association offers a variety of courses in fine arts. Classes are open to the public, and are taught by professional artists who provide individual instruction in small group settings. All levels, from hobbyists to accomplished artists, will find their imaginations challenged as they develop new skills or perfect old ones.
Workshops are non-tutored, but for a nominal fee WAA members can paint and draw together at the clubrooms and share ideas, knowledge and experience and enjoy creating artworks in the company of friends in the local art community for a couple of hours.
Classes are normally conducted over ten (10) weeks, commencing in the first week of the school term. Classes and workshops are held in the Nunawading Community Hub, 96-106 Springvale Road, Nunawading, Victoria Australia. Classes will only run with sufficient enrolments.
