Play with Printmaking - 6 wks or drop in

Keen to spend some time each week being creative within a small friendly group? Come along to these relaxed weekly printmaking Wednesday morning sessions!

Here you can quickly pick up the basics of a selection of absorbing printmaking techniques in just a couple of weeks, then experiment with a range of tools, materials and colours to create different effects.

Hosted by printmaker and teacher Kate Miller, you will be supported to create works of art to take home each week, building up a folder of your own work that you can gift or display with pride.
Enjoy returning each week to North Street's Creative Space, where there will be a bank of intaglio and relief inks and resources, quality papers & the most critical tools- wonderful traditional printing presses.

What to expect:

- Learn the basics of your chosen printmaking method (eg linoprint, drypoint etching, monoprint, gellplate printing Lego printing!) From how to draw out a design to how to run your final plate through the press
- Explore a range of materials and markmaking tools
- Discover the printmaking method that is most mesmerising and magical for you
- Explore your creativity by combining materials and techniques
- Take home your colourful printwork designs!

This experience is ideal for:

• Anyone that loves arts and crafts and is looking for a mindful morning of creativity
  
• Those who are total beginners to printmaking and/or etching
  
• Those who have attended printmaking workshops in the past and crave more time at the press!
  
  
• Parents with (non-moving!) babies are very welcome. Space for buggies & changing mats etc. Just pop it in the comments that your little one will be coming along.

All materials, in addition to tea and coffee, will be provided for your regular mornings of crafting to be complete.
