SPAEDA's Residential Retreat

SPAEDA offer short overnight stays at Wick Farm to support the well-being and continued professional development of school staff and artist teachers.
Residential places are available during the first two weeks of the Summer Holiday, taking place at Wick Farm, a beautiful garden and farmhouse with creative workspaces near Langport.

During your stay at Wick, you will have the opportunity to meet with art educators and artists in the area, take some time out to work on your own creative practice, take part in our events and workshops, be part of talks and discussions centred around art education and enjoy some freedom and relaxation exploring the gardens.
