Offering

An explosion of wildflowers pirouette in the gentle breeze. Dandelions rise amongst the silken blades of grass. I watch their quiet decline into a whisper. The seed, a pearl of silver is blown by nature’s sweet breath.

Nicky Ginsberg, Creative Director, NG Art Creative

NG Art Creative is open all year round. There are four different subsidised packages available and the preferred length of stay is 3, 4 or 6 weeks. However we can be flexible depending on your project outcome. A car is available for your pleasure during your stay.
