What to expect at a Calico Collective workshop

We are currently offering workshops in creating jesmonite homeware pieces. Within each jesmonite workshop, you will be guided by Charlotte in the whole process of creating beautiful terrazzo effect homeware pieces. From choosing colours to casting to sanding and adding final touches, these are very hands on workshops with lots of new skills to learn!

All materials are provided for every one of our workshops including aprons to keep you clean!

Our workshops can vary from one to three hours depending on the craft – we always like to ensure that there is plenty of time for one – to – one teaching and a chance to ask lots of questions.

There is more detailed information about each venue and workshop on the listings above but please do get in touch at [email protected] if you have any questions!

PRIVATE WORKSHOPS

Fancy something a little more bespoke?

In addition to our public workshop sessions, available to book above, we also offer a few more bespoke options.

The first option is a private workshop at our Stockport based studio. We can fit up to 12 people in our space, or alternatively, please get in touch if you would prefer us to come to you! We can bring all materials to your work place or a venue of your choice for hen dos, parties, team building days or any other event you can think of!

We also offer the option to make larger products or multiple pieces on our private workshops, with a ‘pay as you go’ option for materials on the day.

If you would like to chat about any of these options or book a private workshop, please fill out the form with as much detail as possible – we’ll aim to get back to you in 48 hours.
