New Class Dates

The days might be chilly, but our studios are full of warmth, creativity, and the gentle hum of jewellers at work.

Winter is the perfect time to tuck into something hands-on, get those creative sparks flying, and enjoy the calm focus that comes with making.

We've got a fresh line-up of workshops to brighten your weekends and warm your fingers—from beginner favourites to exciting new techniques to try. Whether you're keen to cast, hammer, solder or shape, there's a class with your name on it.

Come in from the cold, grab a cuppa, and join us for some winter magic in the studio.

Summer School 2026

We are so excited to offer week-long intensives in Ōtaki Beach, Pōneke | Wellington and Ōtautahi | Christchurch. 

Our summer school intensives are carefully curated to offer participants the opportunity to immerse themselves in the creative process. Whether the week is a chance for makers to boost their technical skills and advance their professional practice, or a much-needed time for creative refuelling and refreshing for the year of mahi ahead, these classes are not to be missed. 

Working alongside expert tutors with small class numbers and two tutors for fuller classes, the experience allows students to build meaningful connections with peers, as well as get that all-important time at the bench on consecutive days to really cement your creative learning. 

Take advantage of our early bird booking price now to get the best price!

If you would like to spread the payment over time, we have Afterpay available at checkout (pay fortnightly, split into 4 payments) or we are able to offer our own payment plans for monthly or weekly payments spread over longer term.

Booking in June for example, would give the option to pay the class fee over 30 weeks. 

Email us to enquire about the payment plan available to you. 

 

Class fees are $865 for the week and include all resources, consumables and a generous materials allowance per student. 

Early Bird price is $815 and is available until  August 31, 2025.
