The St Ives September festival offers over 200 events including art, practical workshops, music, dance, poetry and theatre. It’s a great time to visit and the St Ives School of Painting offer 3 hour “taster ” art workshops throughout the two weeks.

The first St Ives September Festival ran in September 1978 and covered folk music, dance, fine arts, chamber music, poetry, arts & crafts and theatre even featuring a very young Nigel Kennedy!

You can book our workshops with us and these will be available to book online as soon as tutors are confirmed. To find out about all the other activities going on in the town visit the St Ives September Festival website.
