Upcoming Workshops
Villa Rustica workshops focus on inspiring and educating participants in the beautiful surrounds at Villa Rustica. We teach courses in ceramics, mosaics and candle making. Our classes are limited to small groups to ensure everyone receives plenty of personal attention.
You can see photos and testimonials of previous workshops on the Journal.

Refill your Candles Workshop
This is one of our most popular workshops at Villa Rustica and now you can book a private workshop with a minimum of 6 participants for $95 per person.
In this workshop, you will bring along your empty candle vessels to refill with your own unique fragrance. While our candles set, we will take you on a tour around Villa Rustica and enjoy morning tea in the Pavilion.
You can see photos and more information from our recent workshops here.
Testimonial
If you’re after a fun learning experience, I recommend attending a workshop at Villa Rustica. I’ve attended several pottery, candle making and mosaic courses! The courses are well structured and organised, and I’ve come away with lots of information and a completed artwork.
