The session is ideal for anyone curious about trying lino cutting for the first time, with clear, practical guidance through the tools, techniques, and process.
You'll work from provided reference material or your own design and leave with a finished print to take home.
The cost is £40 including all materials, with places limited to just four to ensure personal tuition from Julia Entwistle.
Tea, coffee, and biscuits are included.
