Introduction to Silverpoint at the Rare Trades Centre
Join fine artist Lisa Nolan for a beginner workshop on silverpoint.
Silverpoint is a traditional type of drawing that was used by masters such as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael during the Renaissance and is still used today.
This full-day workshop will focus on beginner drawing techniques using a silver stylus. You will learn to prepare the surface to receive the medium and to measure and mount your drawing.
At the end of the day, you will take your work of art home with you.
Held at Ballarat’s Australian Centre for Rare Arts and Forgotten Trades, a world-class facility dedicated to learning and preserving Australia’s rare arts and trades through a series of workshops, masterclasses, events, and residencies.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities.
These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.
We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years.
As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
