Overview
The Creative Skills Series of Summer Schools has been designed to provide you with hands-on experience of working in a creative skills workshop environment. It offers a unique opportunity to enhance current skills and to develop new techniques and knowledge that can be used to delight friends and family or even provide the motivation to use new skills professionally and commercially.
You will enhance your understanding of traditional Scottish themed jewellery and will create a personally designed and crafted piece that will require the use of innovative techniques and equipment under the direction of award-winning jewellery designers and manufacturers.
Our Summer Schools are designed to provide you with a platform to experience Scotland’s biggest and most vibrant city. We will work with our industry partners to arrange a visit to a commercial jewellery maker in or around Glasgow. This will enable you to see how the skills developed in the Summer School can be used to enhance your jewellery making skills whether for personal or commercial purposes.
