Workspace Studios is a jewellery and small-object making studio with locations in Wellington and Christchurch. It provides a well-equipped workshop where jewellers and makers can rent benches by the day or on an ongoing basis, with access to tools, a metal shop, casting services and support, alongside a busy programme of classes.
The business was founded in 2004 by Vaune Mason and Annie Collins, who met while studying at Whitireia Polytechnic in Porirua. It remains female-led and 100% owned by its two founders, and its teaching has grown from the pair to a team of tutors across both workshops. Services span jewellery classes, private tuition, bench and equipment rental, casting and business support for makers.
For MICE and incentive organisers in Christchurch, Workspace Studios offers a hands-on creative activity option — a guided jewellery-making class makes an engaging team-building or incentive add-on, giving delegates a made-by-hand keepsake. Its established, well-supplied studio suits small-group creative experiences within a wider conference or incentive programme.
