Welcome to NatureArt Lab

We are a multi-award-winning Australian art school and environmental education centre.

Our art classes are located in Canberra at M16 Artspace and Brisbane at the Queensland Museum plus online - and we have programs that can take you anywhere with our Australian and international immersive art nature tours. We believe that when people engage nature through art, it fosters a deep connection of custodianship to this country and a care for nature.

What Do We Do?

NatureArt Lab unites communities through art inspired by nature. We provide short art courses, photography courses and workshops. Our classes are currently offered at studio locations in Canberra and Brisbane.

We offer immersive nature tours in Australia and around the world, with short art and photography courses including:

  • Nature photography
  • Art workshops
  • Nature journaling
  • Bird watching
  • Nature walks
  • And more!

NatureArt Lab allows participants to learn new skills, meet new people, and immerse themselves in nature-inspired art. While on a nature tour, you can develop your art and photography skills and learn more about the environment with our expert team.

  • Join NatureArt Lab on our Costa Rica Nature Tour
    March 21, 2024 Julia Landford

    Join NatureArt Lab on our Costa Rica Nature Tour

    Join NatureArt Lab for a once-in-a-lifetime nature tour of Costa Rica’s unique biodiversity. Start the tour by visiting the famous Braulio Carrillo National Park, which is famous for Barva Volcano, and several other dormant volcanoes. 

    Then, discover Cahuita National Park on foot and by kayak to spot sloths, monkeys, lizards, and birds in their natural habitat. Next, we’ll journey to Sarapiqui, where you’ll participate in optional whitewater rafting, chocolate tours, and more nature walks.

    We’ll also visit the immense Arenal volcano before journeying to Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, where you can spot the Green Macaw and more beautiful wildlife.

    A major highlight of the tour will be discovering the Osa Peninsula, the most remote, wild and biodiverse region of Central America. Finally, we’ll finish up the tour in Dominical, known for its surfing beaches and forest trails.

    Along the way, you’ll experience nature art workshops and get to know like-minded travellers on your tour over delicious meals and activities together.
