Dive into the exciting world of printmaking in this four-day creative workshop series designed for curious makers and adventurous artists. Across the week, you will explore a variety ofprintmaking styles, techniques, and processes, discovering how artists use texture, layering, pattern, colour, and repetition to create unique and expressive works of art.
Each day will offer a completely different creative experience, with projects revealed on the day itself—encouraging spontaneity, experimentation, and the joy of creative surprise. Whether you’re completely new to printmaking or looking to expand your skills, these workshops are designed to inspire confidence, curiosity, and playful exploration.
You can attend a single session for a standalone creative experience, or join all four days at a discounted rate to enjoy a broader journey through the possibilities of print.
This workshop series is about more than learning techniques—it’s about discovering new ways to think creatively, take artistic risks, and develop your own visual language in a welcoming and supportive studio environment.
We will have 40 minute lunch break – please bring lunch with you to enjoy in the studio. Alternatively you can take a walk down the High Street where there are a couple of cafes to choose from if you’re old enough to go on your own.

We believe creativity should be accessible to everyone. If you feel your child would benefit from one of our workshops but financial circumstances make this difficult, please get in touch with us in confidence. Through our Pay It Forward scheme, we may be able to offer supported places, and we would hate for anyone to miss out on the benefits of creativity due to cost. Equally, if you are in a position to contribute towards our Pay It Forward scheme and help another child access our workshops, we would love to hear from you.
