The Art Factory has been offered a four-week residency at the Wagga Wagga Marketplace during August and September.

During this time, we will be offering complimentary thirty-minute portrait sittings and a take-home portrait created by one of the talented artists who work in our studio each week. We will be offering these portrait sittings every Tuesday – Friday from the 29th of August to the 22nd of September. There are two sessions a day for you to choose from, 10:30am – 11:00am, and 1:00pm – 1:30pm.

Our artists work across a range of mediums including drawing, painting, digital, and mixed media. Some of the portraits will be finished during the sitting, and some will need to be completed afterwards and collected from our studio at the Riverina Community College at a later date, which will be confirmed upon completion of the artwork.

The Art Factory is a contemporary artist-led studio which increases the visibility and professional development of artists with neurodiversity and learning disabilities. We provide an inclusive, safe and empowering environment for artists and staff artists to be respected and valued. We foster and advocate for authentic best practice initiatives across art, community, education, disability and health.
