Love My New Zealand Art Retreats

Four days of painting, colour, creativity, great food and wonderful company - a relaxed, intimate retreat in Sue's own back yard. Sue MacDougall's home-turf counterpart to her Aegina retreats: a compact four-day creative escape in Tauranga, Bay of Plenty, capped at eight guests. Guests base at Hotel on Devonport and paint at The Incubator, a working studio inside Tauranga's Historic Village, with a mini-van shuttling the group between the two. The rhythm: welcome dinner on arrival, two full days of hands-on painting and color exploration with Sue (all skill levels welcome), breakfasts, lunch at Historic Village, dinners out locally, free time to explore downtown Tauranga, and a farewell dinner to close.
