Not only do creative arts workshops in Australia provide an in-depth tourism experience, they also (obviously!) teach you skills and sometimes help you to get out of your "comfort zone". This is a fabulous outcome if you are also looking to explore and enhance your own creativity.
Usually workshops and artists retreats are held over several days or more, developing skills levels in a relatively short time. By comparison, regular classes take smaller steps over a longer period. Both can have a wide or narrower focus so you need to 'shop around' to find what suits you best.
