During the St Ives September Festival 2 weeks I will be offering one day special introductory workshops /TASTER DAYS.
This workshop will run EVERY DAY OF THE FESTIVAL if there are bookings.

This is a unique experience as this will give the student chance to decide if they wish to continue to learn more of the skill of glass beadmaking/lampworking.

These workshops will be available ONLY during the St Ives September Festival.

The day will begin at 10.30 a.m. and the morning will be spent with tuition on safety at the torch and then onto basic bead making, after lunch you will be able to practise on the torch to perfect your new skill.

The workshop will end at 4.00 p.m.

THE ST IVES SEPTEMBER FESTIVAL
is world known bringing artistic people to the town for the special 2 weeks that the Festival runs for every year, it is a wonderful time to visit St Ives for a holiday or mini break.
The Festival gets more response every year and the atmosphere is wonderful, live music, arts workshops, poetry readings, street entertainers, talks, walks, comedy, films, theatre and the very special open studio days, these days are when the local artists open the doors of their workspace and allow the Public a glimpse inside. Guided tours take visitors around the Town or you can wander at your own free will and browse in the fascinating studios and purchase direct from the Artists if you wish.
