Your Jewellery Making Workshop

Tell us about the workshop(s) you would like to run.

Please note that we are looking to curate a programme that runs every day of the Festival, with a great spread of workshops across the full programme. We are not looking for 20 workshops each Saturday, but rather a varied programme of activity throughout the Festival.

As a result, you are more likely to be included in the programme if you are able to offer workshops on weekdays as well as weekends.

If your workshop is accepted into the programme, you’ll have the opportunity to submit your finalised information, so don’t worry if some of the details change along the way.

Please list all dates you’d be happy to run a workshop. Tell us the maximum number you’d be willing to run.
