Pigeon Seminars
15th July 2006
'Teaching Textiles'
Birmingham University Conference Park
Our seminars take place on weekends throughout the country and throughout the year and are advertised locally to where they are being held.
The purpose of the seminars is to pass on art skills in the context of working with children and teachers and to pass on knowledge of how to go about gaining work in schools.
Our typical audience at a workshop weekend would be people who are interested in setting up a business similar to our own in their area, or who already do something similar and would like to hone their skills and add to their repertoire.
A weekend would have a focus such as textiles, 3D etc for each half day or so (i.e. am and pm) which would be entirely hands-on, combined with discussions about the practical side of getting work, selling yourself to schools, finance etc.
