Beginner-friendly workshop with Hayley Allan to design and make your own necklace from silver findings and beads.
Montague Gallery is running a jewellery making workshop on Sunday 1 November, where you can design and make your own necklace. It's led by Hayley Allan, and the whole session is about working with silver findings and beads of crystal, glass, semiprecious stone and wood to put together a bespoke piece you take home with you.
One of the best things about it is that you don't need any prior experience or skills to join in. The gallery explicitly welcomes people who don't consider themselves artistic, and they make a point of mentioning that left-handed people are welcome too. You can come along on your own or bring friends, and the small group sizes mean you'll get one-to-one tuition throughout the morning, so you won't be left wondering what to do with a bead or a clasp.

It's part of the gallery's wider programme of art and craft workshops, and this is just the start of a longer run: further courses in making bracelets, earrings and collar and charms jewellery are planned for 2027, so if you fancy sticking with it, there's plenty more to follow. The session runs from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm at Montague Gallery, 28 Portland Road, Worthing, BN11 1QN, and prices start from £55.
