Creative Classes for Adults at Flowerfield Arts Centre

ENROLMENT IS NOW OPEN for the new term of classes.

You can call at reception at Flowerfield any time and pay for a place on any of the classes. We cannot, however, hold places for students without a payment. We also accept credit card payments and bookings by phone on (028) 7083 1400.

Most of the classes get underway in the last week of January (week commencing January 25th) and run for ten weeks – there are a few exceptions, so please make sure you check the details when you enrol. If the classes dont attract enough enrolments, they will not run, and payments will be refunded. Flowerfield will make a decision on the viability of the classes on January 15th.

Fees paid are not refundable, except where a course does not run, or if it is oversubscribed.

For the classes we are running in partnership with the Northern Regional College, please note that those applying for the concessionary rate will need to provide documentary evidence that they are in receipt of benefits. These classes also offer an accreditation if students wish, for a small additional fee, payable to the tutor. Please ask at reception when enrolling.

(and please bear in mind that we may be adding some additional classes in the next few weeks – keep watching the website for details)
