What’s the difference between a Workshop and Masterclass?
A master class is designed for students who already have a strong foundation in the subject and are looking to deepen their skills under the guidance of experts. Participants are expected to have prior experience and a certain level of proficiency in the field. The focus is on advanced techniques, nuanced concepts, and individualized feedback tailored to the participant's creative goals and abilities.
On the other hand, a workshop is open to individuals of all levels, from beginners to experienced practitioners. It provides a supportive environment for learning, experimentation, and skill development. Workshops often cover fundamental principles and techniques, allowing participants to learn and grow together, regardless of their starting point. The emphasis is on exploration, collaboration, and fostering a welcoming space for everyone to engage with the subject matter.
Both master classes and workshops offer valuable learning opportunities, each tailored to meet the specific needs of participants at different stages of their learning journey
