workshops

Come have a go - no experience needed

Workshops are a key part of the Collie Creates experience, offering the community a chance to come together, learn, and be inspired. Throughout the festival, a wide range of creative sessions take place — guided by local and visiting artists who are passionate about sharing their skills and ideas.

Whether it’s something hands-on, expressive, or just plain fun, our workshops add colour and connection to the festival atmosphere.

If you’re interested in running a workshop as part of Collie Creates, we’d love to hear from you. Please fill out the expression of interest form and a member of our team will be in touch.

Just want to come along?

Perfect. Bring your mates, grab a coffee, and soak it all in. No need to be “arty” - just curious.
