Our 2024 - 2025 Prospectus

Since 2007 Artybird Carnforth has been a creative textile & art school in the North West of England, and is now ONE of the few remaining centres offering face to face teaching.

We seek to create individual textile makers with strong, original visions and voices.  We achieve this is by fusing strong design practice with the skills and techniques needed to create unique, beautiful textiles.

Our teaching is led by the principles of City & Guilds training whilst remaining flexible to individual learning needs.  The school’s creativity, and our greatest strength, is the thriving community of artists and makers that inspire and nurture all of us.

Become part of our community by joining our online school! There is something for makers at all levels.
