About this Event

Linocut is back! But this time we are pushing it further through the process of reduction printing. Print using multiple colours and layers, experimenting with the colours, subject and styles of spring.

In this workshop we will be making a limited editions of multi-coloured prints. Learn how to carve in layers and design in graphic shapes. Guided by two Royal College of Art trained printmakers you will leave with a selection of frameable final prints. We welcome all skill levels.

Alongside the workshop you will be provided with a selection of complimentary snacks and beverages.


Studio Notes:

- Please arrive on time and wrapped up warm – our studio, whilst lovely, is an old Victorian building and though we will have heaters it still gets chilly in the evenings.

- Make sure any clothes you are wearing you are happy to get messy in – we do have aprons, but printmaking is unpredictable at times.

- You do not need to bring any materials as they will all be provided to you.


Parking:

Free parking is available outside the Fire Station; however, it is limited. There is plenty of street parking down Park Road which is free on weekends or after 6pm on weekdays.
