Welcome to our Summer School Programme!
We are so excited to offer week-long intensives in Ōtaki, 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.
