To enable post-course practice and the chance for people to work alongside more experienced and professional wallers, Stone of Arc hosts demand-driven practice events. These events are open to anyone with some level of prior experience in dry stone walling, with practice opportunities available/tailored to suit all skill levels.

In 2026, the construction of the new national training centre for dry stone walling (in the Shoalhaven) is generating amazing opportunities for all levels of waller, from hobbyist to master. Throughout the year Stone of Arc is offering the opportunity to Australia’s dry stone alumni, to come practice and develop their skills - whilst assisting in the construction of a mouthwatering array of walls and features, that will ultimately become the long term future of dry stone walling in Australia and the Pacific region.

What’s provided

Practice days run 8am - 4pm daily. Tools, PPE, stone, Master Craftsman guidance/feedback, lunch/refreshments and parking is all catered for, in a beautiful location. You  just need to bring a hat, water bottle, sturdy/steel-toed boots and gloves (though we do have S/M/L walling gloves available for $10).

Whether you just want to come for a day or two or all 5.. it's up to you, but if walling's your thing or you'd like it to be, this is an opportunity not to be missed!
