What's on in the school holidays Wollongong ?

Since 2018, Black Duck Studio has been the place to be in the school holidays! 

Parents from all over the Illawarra have been flocking to our little studio for ceramics, arts and crafts. All of our clay hand-building workshops during the school holidays can be a simple kids drop off program – or parents can join in to hand-build with clay too!
