If you've been looking for some creative things to do in Cornwall, this printmaking class on Jubilee Wharf is ideal. Unwind as you tap into your artistic side, learn something new, and enjoy the lovely view of the river.

You'll be guided by experienced printer John Howard. Following his expert wisdom, you will learn two different forms of monotype printing. Both the additive and subtractive processes will be fully explained with detailed demonstrations and hands-on experience as you get to give it a go yourself.

Over four hours, you will explore different ink application methods and learn how to use colour and line. You can come along as a complete beginner to pick up some new skills or already have some knowledge of printmaking and happily develop your skills alongside fellow local creatives.

The printmaking studio is nestled amongst other creative businesses and a cafe, so you can enjoy a truly unique day here. It is also fully wheelchair accessible.

By the end of this craft class, you will have finished hand-made prints to take home and cherish. You could even give them out to loved ones as unique gifts!
