Got a few days free this Summer?

Spend them getting better at what you love.

Our short workshops help you build skills, experiment, and embrace the joy of making. From half a day to a four-day intensive workshop, there is something for all skill levels.

Do you always have to take up your trousers? Sleeves too long? Shoulders slightly off?

Or have you given up altogether and want to make your own clothes, but find the paper patterns impenerable?

Enter the lovely Lucy Barraclough, your tutor for all things dressmaking.

Lucy teaches two courses here at New Brewery Arts, Alterations & Repairs for Beginners and Improvers as well as Make Your Own Clothes - Sewing from a Pattern.

If you’ve ever fancied giving it a go, have a little listen to Lucy chatting through what to expect from the two courses.

I dare you to you to walk past an Esther Smith automata and not turn the handle.

Esther’s whimsical pieces demonstrate her past life as a jeweller in their metalwork detail.

Go on, pop into the shop and give one a go.

Ever wondered what goes on behind the doors at New Brewery Arts?

Now you can take a look around from anywhere thanks to a brilliant 360° virtual tour created by local business Eye Revolution (link in bio).

We’re especially grateful as Eye Revolution created the tour completely free of charge after naming New Brewery Arts their Charity of the Year.

You might even discover parts of the building you’ve never noticed before!

Thanks to your votes, New Brewery Arts has been named the Muddy Stilettos Arts, Culture & Theatre winner for Gloucestershire and Worcestershire for the second year running.

But this isn’t just about 2026. Since 2016, you’ve voted New Brewery Arts into the finals every single year the awards have been held, with regional wins in 2016, 2017, 2019, 2021, 2025 and now 2026.

That’s a decade of support. A decade of learning, making, visiting exhibitions, meeting friends, discovering new skills, supporting makers, drinking coffee, buying handmade gifts and believing that creativity matters.

We may look after the buildings, but you are what makes this place special.

Whether you’ve taken a course, visited an exhibition, bought from the shop, stopped by the café, brought a friend, volunteered, donated or simply cheered us on from afar – this award belongs to you.

Now, who’s putting the kettle on?

Got ideas for your home but can’t find exactly what you’re looking for in the shops? Or always wanted to make your own soft furnishings but didn’t know where to start?

Our new Introduction to Home Furnishings course will give you the skills and confidence to create your own pieces. Tutor Ruth Martin, owner of Baskerville & Jones at New Brewery Arts, shares what you can expect in the video from her studio.

Autumn term bookings are now open, but spaces are limited—book soon to avoid missing out.

“Craftland is a fascinating and highly readable wake-up call to anyone who has stopped to listen to a peal of church bells, marvelled at the sight of a wicker fox running across the ridge of a newly-thatched roof or relished the weight and balance of a knife made of Sheffield steel.

“It pulls into focus some of the skills that have formed an essential part of the lives and landscapes of Britain for centuries, on the places where they were rooted and the people who have practised them, sometimes for generations.

“James Fox’s voice is full of admiration for those who continue to practice these crafts against the odds and leaves no doubt that their future relies on us all.”
- Carolyn, Shop Team

I bet you didn’t know that you could make this go!

The eagle eyed will have spotted this Robert Race installation in the cafe. It was made especially for us by the artist who specialises in moving toys and automata.

For only a quid, you can set it in motion. Great for entertaining the kids.

All proceeds go towards supporting our charitable work in the community.
