Conscious of the importance of keeping crafts alive, particularly the traditional ones that are an integral part of local culture, heritage, and national identity, the Malta Crafts Foundation is offering Beginner Courses in Crafts for adults, youths, and children.
With a growing appreciation of handmade products within the local market, the courses offer an opportunity to learn the basics of some of Malta’s most popular crafts, with the possibility of bringing in an element of innovation as a new artisan.
Following their successful launch in 2024, a new intake is being planned to start during the first week of April 2025.
Applications must be submitted through this form by not later than Friday, 21st March, 2025.
Please register for your preferred course/s. The craft being instructed, the level of difficulty, as well as the schedule and method of delivery varies from one session to another, depending on what the different artisans are offering in their courses and/or workshops.
The availability of these courses is subject to a minimum number of participants, which varies from craft to craft. In case the minimum requirement is not met, the Malta Crafts Foundation reserves the right to cancel, reschedule, or merge sessions to ensure the courses can be delivered effectively. Participants will be notified of any such changes in a timely manner.
A new intake is being planned for summer, including a wider selection of courses specifically for children in view of their holidays.
