Print Club - Kitchen Lithography

Come along to Print Club, where each month we will try out a different style of printmaking in a relaxed, social atmosphere. A great opportunity to learn and experiment with multiple techniques over six sessions. No previous printmaking experience is needed, come and have a go and make some prints. Each session will run from 7pm - 9pm on the third Wednesday of the month. The studio doors will open at 6.45pm to give you time to have a drink and settle in.

Overview: Each month we will be experimenting with a different style of printmaking. In each two hour session there will be a quick demo of that month's printmaking technique and then it’s over to you to relax and experiment.

September's session will be Kitchen Lithography. This is an adaptation of traditional stone lithography, where we will use household items such as tinfoil to create gorgeous, painterly prints.

Printmaker Lisa Benson will be leading the sessions with some assistance from with Lily, the studio manager and technician. Lisa has a curiosity for all things print, she loves sharing her knowledge and teaching the magical process of printmaking.

Materials and equipment: All materials and equipment will be provided.

Please note:

Clothing: We will be working with inks that do not easily wash out of clothing. Wear old clothes and bring an apron/old shirt etc. as cover-up. Avoid loose, dangly sleeves, which can be a safety hazard.

Parking: There is no on-site parking for visitors to East Quay. Harbour Road pay and display car park is convenient but costly. There is unrestricted parking along Doniford Road and other residential streets nearby. East Quay is just a short walk from here via Goviers Lane.

If you have any other questions or would like to speak to Lisa or Lily, please email printstudio@eastquaywatchet.co.uk and one of them will be in touch.
