Intensive, hands-on design bootcamps where you make finished portfolio pieces.
Jewelry. Woodworking. Textiles. Electronics. Ceramics. Printmaking. And more.
At Praxis, you learn by making.
Whether you have 4 days or 4 weeks, you'll work directly with experienced makers and engineers to design and execute finished portfolio pieces. We provide access to professional-grade equipment, materials, instruction, and mentorship across a wide range of disciplines—all in one workshop.
You're not learning theory. You're not watching videos. You're making real work that you own, photograph for your portfolio, and take with you.
This is what design education should be.
CHOOSE YOUR DISCIPLINES
Pick one craft or combine multiple. Design a ring in metalsmithing, then integrate electronics to make it respond to your heartbeat. Print linocuts, then hand-bind them into a book. Paint on ceramics, then use them in a kinetic installation. The workshop is yours to explore.
HANDS-ON MENTORSHIP
You're never learning alone. Every student gets dedicated time with instructors who are actively practicing their craft. Whether you're a beginner or experienced maker, instruction is tailored to where you are. We teach the fundamentals and push you toward mastery.
REAL PROJECTS, REAL RESULTS
You don't make sample projects. You make pieces worthy of your portfolio. Finished jewelry. Bound books. Functional furniture. Wearable technology. Installations. Every project is documented professionally—photographed and videoed so you have portfolio-ready materials.
