Looking for a Christmassy experience to spark your festive spirit this year? Whether you're planning a fun get-together with friends or fancy some creative time to yourself, this hands-on printmaking workshop offers the perfect way to celebrate the season.
Join me for a special Christmas-themed session where you’ll learn the basics of lino printing in a relaxed and friendly setting. You’ll have the chance to create your very own Christmas cards and/or wrapping paper—perfect for adding a personal touch to your gifts. There’ll be festive music, warming drinks, and mince pies to help get your creativity flowing.
You’ll leave the workshop with your finished prints, new skills to build on at home, and maybe even some new friends! Design templates will be available, but you're also welcome to bring your own ideas—please feel free to bring any reference images if you have something specific in mind.
This workshop is also a chance to take a breather from the busy festive season and enjoy a couple of mindful, creative hours. It's suitable for all experience levels, from complete beginners to seasoned artists wanting to try something new.
