Women’s Art Retreat at The Seed Art School

28 & 29 March 2026 | Port Macquarie
~ Connect • Create • Recharge ~

Step away from the noise of everyday life and into two soul-nourishing days of creativity, connection and self-expression.

Our in-house Women’s Art Retreat is a beautifully curated weekend where you’ll be guided through inspiring art workshops, treated to delicious food, surrounded by like-minded women and supported by our warm, talented creative team.

Whether you’re a total beginner or a seasoned creative, this retreat is about slowing down, trying something new, reconnecting with yourself and leaving with a heart (and hands) full of handmade treasures.

✨ No pressure. No perfection. Just joy, play and creative flow.

🌿 What to Expect

From the moment you arrive, you’ll be welcomed into our light-filled Port Macquarie studio, gifted your own goodie bag and apron (to keep!), and gently guided through a dreamy lineup of workshops across multiple mediums.
