4 hours Class size 1 to 10 guests       £50 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

Join fellow creatives at Jubilee Wharf and discover the creative fun of silkscreen and enjoy the stunning views of the river. If you've been looking for fun things to do in Cornwall, then this is a great place to start.
Guided by two experienced and supportive teachers, Becky and John, you will learn how to make prints using the silkscreen process. You'll be introduced to materials and techniques and how they can be used to create striking pieces of art.
Silkscreen has so many possibilities and is a very creative and exciting way to make striking prints. You will produce an image using three or four colours and cut stencils. Beginners will love how easy and fun this craft is to pick up. If you do have more experience with silkscreen or printing in general, you can still enjoy yourself and learn something new while you're here.
Once this class is over, you will walk away with a colourful and beautiful print. You can also then explore the other creative businesses surrounding the printmaking studio. Everything is wheelchair accessible.
We can also help you explore photo silkscreen using pre-prepared acetate. If this is something you are interested in, please get in touch with your teacher in advance so that they can ensure everything is properly prepared.
