An independent not-for-profit art centre and workshop facility. WAC users have access to a wide range of professionally equipped studios. There are three large painting and drawing studios, as well as ceramics, printmaking, jewellery and sculpture studios. The WAC is also home to the Ewart gallery.
The Workshop Arts Centre maintains itself from annual membership subscriptions, studio hire fees from teachers and artists, income from gallery hire and sales from the Ewart Gallery. These have always been supplemented by fundraising functions and donations. All donations of $2.00 or more are tax deductible.
