Eco-friendly, fast-setting, water-based, non-toxic, and fume-free, Jesmonite is taking the craft world by storm. This composite material is often used in fine arts, crafts, and construction and consists of a gypsum-based material in a resin that can be used for a variety of different uses.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the fundamentals (and some fun tips) of this incredibly versatile casting medium. We’ll cover measuring, mixing, pouring, colouring, creating terrazzo and marbled patterns, and how to correctly de-mould, and sand, as well as lacquering techniques for a professional finish.

We’ll have a range of colours and different mould options available such as trays, coasters, trinket boxes, plant pots, and more for you to explore and experiment with throughout the session.

At the end of the class, you'll have made up to three jesmonite pieces to take home and admire.

Please note: This class requires at least 5 students to run. In the unlikely event that we don't get this number of students, we'll cancel the class and fully refund you and inform you via email, so please watch your email a few days prior to the class

Work-Shop is a creative concept that will broaden your horizons and help you unleash your inner awesome. We provide affordable short courses in life skills and alternative art. We’ve teamed up with Australia’s brightest creative minds to share their knowledge and help teach you a new skill. From 3D printing and stencil art through to music and gardening – life skills and personal development through to cooking doughnuts and mushroom foraging, we offer a broad range of fun and creative short courses to suit our time poor lives. We will inspire you to pick up that pen, paintbrush, hammer or sewing machine and flick the switch that will kickstart a whole new way of life.
Community values lie at the heart of our project. We collaborate with local artists and industry experts to teach classes and utilise local suppliers for any materials needed. We also provide a creative environment for emerging artists to produce and sell work, and meet like minded individuals. Work-Shop will be a space for everyone, with a rotating schedule of art shows, information nights on local issues and a whole range of events and community initiatives.
