Christmas Card Wood & Linocut Printing Workshop

During this day-long practical workshop, you will learn from tutor Will Dyke the art of designing and printing your own Christmas Cards; from your own inspiration through to the printed art, you will learn to design and cut your own wood or lino blocks to print 10 Christmas Cards to take home.  All materials you use during the day are fully sustainable, and included in the price.

Suitable for all abilities, with tuition from Will on design, lino block cutting and printing techniques, by the end of the workshop you will go home with your own printed art, and the printing block you have created so you can print more at home.
