Host a Workshop with Trace

If you have a workshop, class, talk or creative experience you would like to host, we would love to hear about it.

Tell us a little about what you are planning, who it is for and what you need from the space.

The Workshop Experience

Workshop participants making together at TRACE

We keep workshops at TRACE intentionally intimate so that participants have the space to engage, ask questions and make.

A Creative Setting

A working artist studio rather than a conventional event venue - surrounded by an evolving programme of artists and ideas.

Intimate Groups

Our format works best for small groups, allowing the workshop leader to spend meaningful time with each participant.

Flexible Space

The studio can be configured around the needs of your workshop - from tables for making to an open floor for movement, discussion or demonstration.

Hands-On Experiences

TRACE is particularly suited to workshops where participants are making, experimenting, learning a process or engaging directly with materials.

A Community Of The Curious

Our audience is made up of artists, designers, architects, creative practitioners and people who simply enjoy learning something new.

What We Offer

Materials and workshop setup at TRACE

Depending on the workshop, TRACE can provide:

The Space

Set-Up Support
We work with the workshop leader to understand the requirements and prepare the space beforehand.
Basic Venue Infrastructure

Where relevant, we can share the workshop with the TRACE community and help introduce it to our audience.

Your workshop takes place within an active artist community, alongside TRACE’s residency and programme of events.
