In this fun and festive printmaking workshop, children will design and print their own set of handmade Christmas cards to take home and share. Whether they go for a bold bauble design, colourful abstract shapes, or classic winter botanicals, each child will create something truly unique.
During the session, children will:
  • Learn the basics of lino cut design and printing
  • Develop their own festive card ideas
  • Learn to use lino tools safely and confidently
  • Do a quick warm-up print to practise techniques
  • Carve and print their chosen Christmas design
  • Take home a set of ten hand-printed cards (with envelopes)
The workshop is friendly and beginner-friendly, with plenty of guidance throughout. By the end, everyone will have a lovely batch of handmade cards and a great introduction to the craft of linocut printing.

It is fully equipped for printmaking with a range of high-end printmaking equipment from etching presses to a screen printing table. Facilities for tea, coffees and have a breather also available!

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.
