Spring Taster #1: Block Printing - Wednesday 8th April 2026
Evening Course, Wednesday 8th April, 18:00-20:30, £38 each or £140 for all four, All levels
In this workshop we will be using pre-carved block printing blocks to experiment with pattern making and repetition, taking inspiration from traditional block printing methods. You will learn about ink consistency for printing onto paper or fabric and how to stamp an effective print.
The Spring Taster Series comprises of 4 evening workshops across April exploring various printmaking techniques (click on each process below for more information). Each class is £38 each or £140 for all four. Book all four classes here. This is a good opportunity to try a process out and see if you like it before committing to one of our full day workshops. You can come to each session individually or come to all four for a crash course in printmaking.
Read about each course by following the links here:
We will provide all the materials for the day including a block, tools for cutting, ink and paper.

Feel free to bring snacks! Tea and coffee provided.
What you’ll leave with at the end of the day
