Workshops

We offer a variety of workshops and taster sessions at Westgate Galleria. These include one-to-one wellbeing and creative sessions, as well as small group workshops focussed on arts and crafts techniques, including leatherwork, silver clay, mosaic, felting, needlecraft, beading, card-making and much more. We also host writing groups who often take their inspiration from the beautiful work on display in the galleries.

Workshops can be booked online, in the Galleria, on by telephone, or sometimes direct with the workshop leader. Details of specific booking arrangements for each workshop will be found in its description.

Our workshops provide a stimulating experience that can be shared with friends old and new. Many of our workshop leaders can arrange bespoke sessions for small groups of friends. Contact us to find out more about this option.

Shoreline gift vouchers can be used to pay for workshops. Buy them online or in the Galleria to make an interesting and thoughtful gift for anyone interested in learning a new craft or developing their existing skills further.
