Ghost Ranch hosts a series of art workshops each year. This is one of my favorite destinations for art study and development.

Centrally located in Oslo with some online information in English. The museum can permit drawing and/or photography upon special artist request, depending on the terms of the exhibition. You must inquire before entering, sign a pledge/release, wear an appropriate badge. And behave accordingly.

Not centrally located, but now in the process of moving to a new building nearer to Oslo's city center. Meaning it's a mess and I don't think you can visit for some time... Munch was very talented and productive, despite his ennui. The museum and special exhibits are generally very interesting and excellent.
