The retreat is from 9:30am - 12:30pm, with a short coffee break.
Q: Is it suitable for all people?
Our retreat is designed for anyone seeking rest, creativity, and reconnection in a calm, nature-based setting. No prior art experience is needed, this is a space for gentle exploration, presence, and personal expression rather than outcomes or skill level. We welcome people of all ages and backgrounds, whether you are navigating change, looking to recharge, or simply carving out time for yourself. If you have any accessibility requirements, please let us know when booking.

Parking is free within the Brunswick East park. There are 54 spaces available within the park itself. These can be accessed via the main gate off Stewart Street.
