École d'Art Céramique de Vallauris (EACV) – junior workshops and holiday courses
The town's own ceramics school, opened in 1994 in an old pottery: junior workshops cover pottery, modelling, decoration, wheel-throwing and drawing, taught by professionals in the place where Vallauris still makes its pots.
