Full statement from Out of the Blue Arts and Education Trust >>

The Precious Metals Workshop is Scotland’s leading educational and resource workshop for jewellers and silversmiths. We provide bench space and tools for up to 30 resident jewellers and silversmiths. There are three workshops that offer a range of desks and affordability and all come with lockable storage.

The PMW also offers a three-tiered membership facility on a monthly and annual pay-as-you-go basis for access to the main workshop. Membership times are Monday-Friday, 10am until 5pm, but access is restricted during Summer School.

Paying close attention to the continuously changing guidelines issued by the government and the rise in the spread of Covid-19 as we enter the autumn, the Precious Metals Workshop have made the sad and difficult decision to not run any courses for the remainder of 2020. They do hope however to run a full Winter term starting in January 2021 and will bring you more information about this towards the festive period.

Our Evening classes and weekend workshops aim to have something for everyone and for all levels of skills. Please see the Terms & Conditions when booking any course via preciousmetalsworkshop.com. With three terms and a Summer School each year, there is a huge range of classes and workshops for everyone. From a ten week evening program to drop-in technique sessions and one day weekend workshops, we really do have something for everyone.
