Art Gems 2025 Fall Workshops
What are Art Gems?
The Art Gems program is a multi-faceted, hand picked selection of special workshops providing a unique experience under the instruction of well known Vancouver Island Artists. Art Gems instructors use a variety of teaching methods, from Demo Style (watch, learn, create) to guiding individual artistic expression, and combinations of both, resulting in a unique learning outcome.
Workshops are open to all levels of experience and showcase a variety of mediums. All materials and supplies are included in these workshops for the convenience of just enrolling, arriving and enjoying creating!
Each 4-hour workshop is $125 with all materials provided
