The Stonehouse Studio provides artistic and creative programs for individuals and organizations and a creative base for artist Marsha Stonehouse.
Founded and directed by Toronto artist and teacher Marsha Stonehouse, the studio is located in the city's west end in a turn-of-the-century factory, now converted into artist's lofts.
Programs are individually tailored and offered in different locations - in the studio itself, on site at organizations, and at designated local and international locales.
Several programs are offered:- Art classes
- Creativity courses and workshops
- Personal coaching/corporate training, and
- Art and culture tours.

- Private classes.
These are held in the studio and at various locations in and around Toronto.
Art and Culture ToursDesigned and led by the artist, these tours cater to those who are interested in experiencing the creative process while travelling. Visiting unique cultural sites, participants are encouraged to meet and work with local artists in each country. Art workshops are held in various locations while on tour.
