These classes provide a stimulating environment in which to develop and explore the technique of tapestry weaving. New students will be taught basic tapestry weaving skills:
Our Thursday tapestry class is limited to six students and is held between 3-5pm on Thursday afternoons at Kew Studio.
We also run monthly Saturday workshops. Please contact the Studio Manager for details at enquiries@kewstudio.org
COSTS
- Thursday course: £130 for 12 evening sessions
- Saturday course: £120 for 3 daytime sessions
NB: All students participating in a Kew Studio class must become Student members at a cost of £5 per term. Student membership brings students fully into the Kew Studio community, allowing them, among other things, the opportunity to take part in Studio meetings and to show their work at Studio exhibitions.
Payment for either course should be by cheque in advance to the tutor. TO BOOK, CONTACT enquiries@kewstudio.org
