Art Mania Studio was established over 13 years ago, by Fee Madigan.  Fee re-located to Newcastle after living and working in remote communities in and around Central Australia. Fee professional back ground stems from Corporate Community Development, teaching and educating front line workers in areas of social justice, drug and alcohol, mental health and disability arena. Throughout Fee’s professional career and personal life, inclusivity has always been on her agenda and speaks passionately around this topic.

Fee came to Newcastle for some respite after witnessing a devastating tragedy, culminating in her mental balance being significantly impacted as a result.  Fee decided to stay in Newcastle and rebuild her life by submerging herself back into her arts practice; something she had put aside whilst in Central Australia.  Within 6 months, Fee had re-engaged her creative brain to be asked to teach a local group of women. This was just the beginning!  Shortly thereafter, Fee opened the doors to Art Mania Studio where she continues to create and teach.

Art Mania Studio is a creative community hub offering people of all walks of life, a safe place to relax, unwind, meet friends and find you through art and creativity.
