Nestled in the heart of the famous Rideau Lakes, our historic 1860s stone estate in the village of Newboro is where artistry and history intertwine. With its enduring beauty and craftsmanship, Stone Manor Studios is more than just a creative space—it's an experience.
This year, many classes focus on slowing down, looking closely, and strengthening our mental well-being. Creativity is the conduit through which we choose this path—whether through painting, writing, or hands-on craft. Several workshops are designed to help you reconnect with yourself, find inspiration, and foster resilience in a world that moves too fast.
More Than Just a Class: Delve into a complete experience where every moment is curated to foster creativity, skill, and personal growth.
Step Back in Time: Our estate's serene surroundings offer a peaceful sanctuary, allowing you to disconnect from the modern world and reconnect with your creative self.
Meet Like-Minded People: Share stories, exchange ideas, and create memories with fellow craft enthusiasts.
In a world where time moves fast, there's something magical about slowing down and immersing yourself in the creative process. Creativity is about the journey, stories, and memories, whether painting, writing, or exploring a new artistic medium.
Join us for a summer retreat, where full-day classes will help you hone your craft in an inspiring environment. Accommodations within walking distance offer options for every budget, enriching your experience as seamlessly as possible.
Leave your mark, feed your passion, and enter a world where creativity thrives.

Stone Manor Studios is located on the grounds of an 1860s stone manor house in the heart of Rideau Lakes. The renovated carriage house has been repurposed as an exclusive art studio for creatives. People gather to learn from experts in their fields, engage in meaningful conversations about art, and are provided with an unforgettable experience that will inspire, refresh, and enrich the creative heart and mind. It is the perfect surroundings to immerse yourself in one of our art retreats.
We imagine a place where creativity flourishes, where imaginations are fed with expert instruction and extended conversations, where we gather to explore deeper meanings to improve or develop our creative skills, and where the experience we share at Stone Manor Studios will renew and inspire our individual talents and enrich our communities for years to come.
We offer weekend and week-long art retreats and special pop-up workshops in a spacious and newly renovated art studio. Partipants use 2.5 acres of forest and grounds for quiet walks and gatherings. Quality teaching from respected instructors offers classes that balance theory and practical teaching. At Stone Manor Studios, we add pre- and post-class events meant to inspire and delight the senses, build community, and reinforce learning.

Stone Manor Studios recognizes that it was established on the ancestral lands of the Anishinaabeg, Huron-Wendat, and Haudenosaunee peoples, which are covered by the Upper Canada Treaties. These lands have long been the traditional territory of the Arendarhonan, Huron-Wendat Nation, Oneida, Haudenosaunee Nation, and Mississaugas, Anishinaabeg Nation.
As settlers, we express gratitude to the generations of people who have called this land home and appreciate the opportunity to live and collaborate on Turtle Island. We acknowledge the historical impact of our ancestors' arrival, including the injustices and inequalities that continue to affect communities today. Together, we strive to heal these wounds and work towards a more equitable and inclusive future for all.
