Create memories and masterpieces this Christmas

Give the gift of a new skill this Christmas. If you're looking for gift ideas for creative friends and family, explore our range of arts and craft short courses.

Create beautiful Christmas decorations with upcoming short courses at West Dean and London campuses. Our courses are suitable for all levels of ability and interest, whether that’s exploring a new hobby or developing advanced skills.

And if you’re not sure which course they would prefer, short course gift vouchers are also available so the lucky recipient can decide for themselves. 

Make it a handmade Christmas

Craft unique gifts in the workshops under the tuition of our talented makers at West Dean.

Looking for gift inspiration?

A thoughtful gift for someone who loves to sketch or write could be a decorative stitched journal. This bookbinding course will teach you techniques to make one-of-a-kind books and you will take home a beautiful handmade book.

For those that would prefer to try something new or even build some confidence at home before doing an onsite course, how about one of our online courses? We offer a range of subjects to immerse yourself in whilst benefitting from tuition by our experts. See all our online creative courses.
