Learn how to make linocut prints from start to finish in a relaxed and friendly setting with an LGBTQ+ group.
About this Event

As part of the "Reach Out" season at St Margaret's House, I'm excited to offer this LGBTQIA+ lino-printing workshop at The Create Place in Bethnal Green.

This workshop is open to total beginners and also to people who would like to develop their lino-printing skills.

Over the two hours we have together, I'll take you through the lino-printing process from start to finish. We'll begin with a few warm-up drawing skills, leading into some linocutting techniques and a demonstration on how to transfer your design onto a lino-block. During the second part of the workshop, you'll learn how to carve your design and finally how to make a print!

I'll be suggesting further printmaking techniques for those who have lino-printed before; these will include making a reduction print and collagraphy.

This session will be open for up to 12 people, thus providing a friendly atmosphere, where guidance and support can take place.

Prices are on a pay what you can scale and will include all resources, plus you'll get to take your print and lino block home!

I'm really looking forward to bringing a group of queer people together to make prints.

If you have access requirements you would like me to know about before the workshop, please email Gemma by October 14th at [email protected].
