A selection of workshops which explore different arts and crafts techniques.

Your tutor, Abbie Mooney, will guide you through the process of layering textures and marks to create unique printing plates that will then be inked up and rolled through our traditional roller press to create a range of original prints. This workshop is perfect for beginners or those who have tried other printmaking processes before as Abbie will equip you with the skills to combine new and familiar techniques to make artwork that is personal to you. You will leave the workshop with a selection of handmade prints and your original collagraph plate to reuse as you wish. All materials and equipment included.
