Overview

While most of us harbour an artistic talent or two, finding time to develop them isn't easy. That's where Jamboree – a three-day festival dedicated to creativity – steps in. Rather than sitting back and soaking up someone else's brilliance, you'll be exploring your own – be it art, music, textiles, cooking or building.

Happening in Wollongong from Friday, October 26 to Sunday, October 28, Jamboree involves a stack of extended workshops. You could learn to life draw with artist Lee Bethel, to sing in harmony with choir leader Rachel Hore or to make your own backyard bee hotel with designer Narelle Happ. Also on the program are masterclasses in fermentation, shibori stitching, coil weaving, movement and much more.

Tickets to the creative weekend are not cheap — $595 if you bring your own tent, $845 if you want to use their luxe glamping facilities — but they are all-inclusive. The fee covers two nights' accommodation, four half-day workshops, morning yoga, food, tea, coffee and Champagne on arrival.
