Launching this spring at The Exchange in Sturminster Newton, come along to The Craft Lab and try your hand at some exciting craft workshops!
Led by a series of local artists and craftspeople, places on each of these workshops will be limited, and so advanced booking is essential.
Lino Printing
with Caroline Buckman
Monday 9th March, 10am – 2.30pm.
Places £20. Tel: 01258 475137 to book
Explore the basics of lino printing in this hands-on, interactive workshop for beginners! We will spend some time practicing carving on test blocks to build confidence, before moving on to carve your own small design into A6 lino. You'll learn allabout the inking and printing process (the technical but fun part!), and can use an easy-to-use Woodzilla press to make multiple prints of your design in different colours!
Everyone will come away with a small selection of prints to hang on your wall or gift to friends. Be prepared to embrace the slightly unpredictable, inky world of printing, and embrace the 'happy accidents' that lino printing can bring! Bring lunch and remember to dress for mess!
