Create your own wearable art with guidance and a relaxed vibe at the first hat burning art workshop Aus wide!



2 hours Class size 1 to 10 guests    

  $135 (Afterpay available)

Are you ready for some good old-fashioned fun with all the creative spark you could dream of? Grounded Village Studio introduces you to the incredible art of hat burning!
AS SEEN ON CHANNEL 7'S WEEKENDER!
Our studio was voted one of the top 20 tourism experiences by Tourism Qld 2026!
Join our hat burning workshop for an experience like no other to learn the art of how to scribe your own art into high-quality hats with professional burners to create shade, texture, and line.
First and foremost—don't be nervous, we've got you! There’s no experience needed, just a willingness to have fun. We'll guide you through every step, and you'll leave with a beautiful piece of wearable art you'll be proud of.
Come on your own or bring your favourite people—there are no rules here, just creativity, laughter and a great time!
A range of hats in different colours and sizes will be available for you to choose from on the day. Not sure where to start? Our artist is there to help with ideas, inspiration and guidance throughout the workshop. If you already have a design in mind, feel free to bring along your inspiration!
Get ready, because this workshop is seriously F.U.N! We encourage everyone to freehand their designs—it creates a much more authentic and unique result than using templates. No two hats are ever the same, making each one a true reflection of your own creativity. (we have templates however you will realise you dont need them)
Once you've finished burning your design, you'll have the opportunity to personalise your hat even further with braided leather, feathers, textiles and other beautiful embellishments to create your own one-of-a-kind masterpiece.
Enjoy a relaxed creative atmosphere with delicious nibbles and refreshments while you create.
With nothing but five-star reviews, this is more than just a workshop—it's an experience you'll remember. Whether you're celebrating a birthday, planning a hens party, organising a private event, or simply treating yourself to some well-deserved creative time, we'd love to welcome you.
We can't wait to create with you!

  • 5/5 from Lisa Ellis, attended Dec 2025: Jess was amazing, so knowledgeable and gave you lots of hints and tips on how to achieve your desired artwork on your hat. Would highly recommend doing this.
  • 5/5 from Kylie Fuller, attended Dec 2025: Absolutely loved this class, Jess was so knowledgable and provided great instructions, she guided us and built confidence in each of to produce an amazing and orginal piece. Four our group we were all given the same materials and instructions and we each chose a different coloured hat and our own creative designs, each one unique and to our style. This was such fun and we all came away with a beautiful one of a kind hat, thanks Jess!
  • 5/5 from Charlotte Chippindall, attended Nov 2025: This class was so fun! I was so nervous as I am not an artist person, but with help from the host I found my confidence and I love my hat!
  • 5/5 from Tanika Barnbrook, attended Nov 2025: We had a great time at our hat burning class
  • 5/5 from Michelle van Eps, attended Oct 2025: Loved this workshop! Great space, felt so welcomed and supported by our teacher. A really engaging activity with lots of choice to make it your own. Loved our morning!!
  • 5/5 from Julie Gore, attended Sep 2025: Our teacher Jess was so lovely and very helpful while encouraging us to be creative. We were given great instructions before we started. I would recommend this class.
  • 5/5 from Lindsay Rulten, attended Jul 2025: Facilitator and venue were great, had time to learn and practice before jumping in!
  • 5/5 from Shona Macdonald, attended Jul 2025: Very fun class, teacher was great. Loved my hat and was so creative.
  • 5/5 from Marianne Kirrane, attended Jul 2025: Fun class. I'm not particularly artistic, so getting a design on without a template wasn't my forte. After plenty of encouragement and advice (and some inspiration from the internet), I've left with a hat I'm proud of!
  • 5/5 from Sascha Fournel, attended May 2025: This was a surprise for my mum for Mother’s Day. My husband, 18yo nephew took my mum. We got caught in traffic due to an accident on the Centenary highway which was going to make us 40mins late. We contacted the contact we had Jess and got a message back that they were going to open another class for us as there were another 4 people who were also delayed! We were so blown away and chuffed at this. And then we met Sharon our facilitator and the gratitude was over flowing. A phenomenal facilitator in her trade…we were very nervous and apprehensive that we would leave with a hat we wouldn’t wear, but Sharon was so genuine and passionate about this art form and process that everyone even our 18year old walked away with a unique creation that we all were proud to show. Great workshop, great space - would 100% recommend!
  • 5/5 from Kim Tily, attended Apr 2025: Had no idea what we were really in for. I cannot draw but our teacher gave us great inspiration and help when needed. Everyone was too scared to start the burning but once you get going its great. As our teacher said, there is no thing as a mistake. She turns these into something special. Highly recommend this for all.
  • 5/5 from Bernie Lynch, attended Apr 2025: Had an absolutely wonderful time and made family memories AND a hat each. Thoroughly recommend. Plan a design before you arrive and you’ll have extra time to work on it!!
  • 5/5 from Craig Hamilton, attended Apr 2025: The teacher was excellent and very helpful with easy tips and suggestions for a better finished hat.
  • 5/5 from Joanne Dempsey, attended Apr 2025: The class was fun. And got an amazing one of a kind hat from it. Thank you
  • 5/5 from Ruth Jonsson, attended Feb 2025: Awesome experience! Although I was a little worried at first because there were no stencils and you are given chalk to do a basic outline. I thought it was going to be a disaster because I'm not artistic, but loved the time I spent there and was surprised at the outcome. I love my design and am so proud of the finished product. Our teacher was so accommodating and helpful. New hobby unlocked!

She brought so much energy and enthusiasm to the session, making everyone feel comfortable and excited about the process. Her knowledge and passion for the art of hat burning was truly inspiring, and she took the time to explain each step, ensuring we understood the techniques while also encouraging us to let loose and enjoy ourselves. Throughout the class, we learned not only the art of hat burning but also the symbolism behind it, which added a deeper layer of meaning to the experience. The class offered great value for money, considering the quality of instruction, the materials provided, and the unique nature of the activity. It was a joyful experience that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for something out of the ordinary. Overall, the hat-burning class exceeded my expectations, and I would definitely sign up for another session in the future!
  • 5/5 from Nicole Newman, attended Jun 2024: Loved the class! My sister & I went together and had no idea what to expect. The teacher was excellent, spoke us through every step and was available throughout to ask questions and advice. We could choose from many different colour hats and embellishments. It was really fun and quite therapeutic. We enjoyed chatting to the other participants and seeing the end results! I would highly recommend this class.
  • 5/5 from Katherine Down, attended Jun 2024: The class was great. So creative and really relaxing. I went on my own and everyone made me feel so welcome.

  • 5/5 from Nina Mitchell, attended Jan 2024: This class was brilliant. I've never done anything like it before. The instructor knew her craft well and did an excellent job of encouraging everyone to just give it a go. It was low pressure and just so much fun. Great atmosphere. Great location. If it was a little closer to home I would absolutely find other workshops to attend here. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon.
