The House That Heals The Soul: Workshop with Shy Bairns

Join Shy Bairns as they work with our Designers in Residence, Jamie Hudson and Orlando Lloyd, for a workshop as part of the exhibition, The House That Heals The Soul.

Participants are welcome to make an optional pay as you feel donation at the end of the workshop to cover material costs. At the end of the session you will have printed matter to take home or distribute. Copies will be kept and distributed by Shy Bairns and one copy will stay in the exhibition's growing library.

The House That Heals the Soul is both an exhibition and a functioning publishing studio. Its presentation at The Tetley coincides with the International Contemporary Artists’ Book Fair. See our website for more information.

Shy Bairns' self titled series includes work from anyone who calls the North ‘home'. Their first publication, The Only Pizza Shop Where I Live Burnt Down, was released December 2016, with a second, Where's Your Coat You're Going To Be Cold, following in April 2017. Both zines intended to gather northern creatives together on one platform, creating a community regardless of medium, level, background or theme. Their third zine of the series is on it's way. Other past projects involve curated shows at Caustic Coastal, Salford, and online @ isthisit.com, and zine making workshops ran for Middlesbrough Art Weekender 2017 and Pen Fight Distro in Manchester.
