Looking for a creative kids’ birthday party in Cheshire or South Manchester that’s a little different? Our screen printing birthday parties offer a hands-on, studio-style experience where children design and print their own t-shirts or tote bags to take home.
This party is perfect for creative kids and teens who love making things and want something more memorable than soft play or party games. Guided by a 5-star rated teacher, children will be introduced to the basics of screen printing in a relaxed, supportive environment. Each session is fully supervised, with clear instructions and plenty of encouragement to experiment and express their own style.
We use safe, age-appropriate equipment and materials, making this an exciting but well-managed creative experience for ages 8 and up. All parties include everything needed on the day — inks, tools, screens, and either a T-shirt or tote bag for every child. There’s nothing extra to organise and no mess to take home.
Parties are designed for small groups of up to eight children, allowing for individual attention and a calm, creative atmosphere. If you’d like to extend the celebration, the studio can be booked for an additional hour for refreshments, with plates, cups and napkins etc. provided. You can leave the washing up to us!
Located in Cheshire / South Manchester, this screen printing party is bookable directly through ClassBento, making it easy to plan a creative birthday experience your child and their friends will genuinely love.
The standard package is for tote-bags, you can upgrade to printing white t-shirts; or coloured t-shirts. Children can be dropped/ picked up directly from the studio if that suits you. Please book with at least a fortnight's notice. Also, I include a studio assistant in the cost of running children's parties (there is a lot to juggle!) If you'd like to reduce the price and take on this role drop me a line!
All Hope Press classes take place in our beautiful studio in Bollington, located in the historic Adelphi Mill. The studio is light, warm and comfortable, designed to be a calm and welcoming space to make art. It is fully equipped for printmaking, with a range of high-end equipment including etching presses and a screen-printing table. Tea and coffee-making facilities are available, with space to rest and take a breather whenever needed.

Parking Parking at the Mill between 9-5, Monday to Friday is often very limited. There is a disabled space in the main mill carpark (what3words ///scorpions.stall.revision). However there is often parking available in Clough Bank carpark, along Clough Bank itself and in the Adelphi Mill overspill carpark that can be reached from Clough Bank (left just before the large, red brick cotton warehouse). ​ Parking at the weekends, evenings is much easier, with plenty of spaces available in the main car park.

Believe it or not, print-making saved my life!
A few years ago, my life looked pretty normal: I was a Dad, a garden designer, and a keen walker. Suddenly everything changed. One day I simply couldn’t get off the sitting-room floor. I’d had a nasty bug and the next thing I knew: I was diagnosed with ME/CFS.
For a long time, things were pretty tough, but as the weeks passed, I began to discover painting and printmaking. And as the weeks turned to months I was making more and more art, and steadily feeling better.
Print-making was a refuge: a place to get better from. As I recovered my health I realised I wanted to share the magic of making things with other people; and the dream of Hope Press was born!
Everyone could do with more space in their life, more time for creativity, more peace and flow. I now run a variety of classes and workshops in printmaking – including a course for people with illnesses like mine – I hope you'll find something for you.
