Ever wondered what really goes on behind the doors of Allettare Dezigns?

Here’s your chance to find out! 👀🎨

Lake Mac Open Studios is back for its 7th year, and Allettare Dezigns is excited to be taking part!

For one weekend only, 35 working studios and more than 80 artists across Lake Macquarie will throw open their doors and invite you inside their creative spaces.

And yes… our doors will be open too!

This is your chance to step inside the studio, have a look around, meet the artist behind Allettare Dezigns and discover some of the creativity, colour and beautiful chaos that happens here.

✨ WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?

Come in, explore and stay for a chat!

Throughout the weekend you’ll have the opportunity to:

🎨 Meet the artist and find out more about Allettare Dezigns

👀 Take a peek behind the scenes and see where the creative magic happens

🖌️ See art and creative processes up close

💬 Ask questions about techniques, materials, classes and all things creative

✨ Discover the huge variety of workshops and experiences available at Allettare Dezigns

🛍️ Browse original artworks, handmade creations and unique giftware

🎁 Find something one-of-a-kind to take home — or perhaps get a head start on your Christmas shopping!

And, of course, there’ll be plenty of colour, creativity and inspiration along the way.

🎨 NOT AN “ARTY” PERSON?

Perfect.

You definitely don’t need to be an artist to come along!

Lake Mac Open Studios is all about getting curious, meeting local creatives and seeing what happens behind the finished artwork.

If you’ve ever thought about trying an art class but haven’t quite been brave enough, this is also the perfect opportunity to come in, meet me, see the studio and discover just how relaxed and welcoming Allettare Dezigns really is.

You might just find your next creative obsession. 😉
