Frequently asked questions

Should I bring paper?

Paper and gift cards are provided but feel free to bring your own paper if you have something specific in mind.

Will it be messy?

Not very, but it's best to bring scruffy clothes or an apron to avoid drips of printing ink

Is it suitable for small children?

Block cutting tools are sharp and there is a risk of injury if care is not taken so I ask that any minors are accompanied by an adult

Anything else I should bring?

Bring pens & pencils if you have them as well as an idea for a print! There will be books and materials for inspiration but its best to have a rough idea to sketch out at the start of the workshop.
