Next workshop is on 23 May. Three places still available. Suitable if you're a beginner, or if you need a refresher. We start by doing a test block, exploring all the different ways of making lines and shapes with the tools, then we print by hand with a spoon as well as on the press. In the afternoon you will carve and print your own design. Workshops take place at the lovely @resortstudios in Margate.
DM me if you have any questions. Booking via my website (takes you to Eventbrite)
Experimenting with gelli plate printing at this week's Print Social. Gelli plates are unique in that they allow you to print with acrylic paint, which is too fast drying for most other print processes. They also allow you to press objects like leaves into the ink surface, which leaves an impression that will come out in the following print. We had mixed results, so any top tips welcome!
All set up for open studios at @resortstudios 12-4pm tomorrow as part of @offseasonmargate come along and find out about our workshops and facilities and have a go at letterpress printing.
Come along to @resortstudios this Sunday and help spread a little kindness. Have a go at letterpress printing a few kind words on a card and then give it to a stranger.
You can choose one of our messages or make your own. We will show you how to typeset your message and help you to print it on an Adana 8-5 letterpress machine.
You can also check out the studios at Resort, ask us about printmaking workshops and facilities membership and see the work of all the Resort members.
This free event is part of @offseasonmargate a brilliant series of exhibitions and open studios happening this weekend in Margate.
Hope to see you there!

Our last workshop in our current building at @dreamlandmargate before we move back up the road to Cliftonville in a couple of weeks! Another wonderful group of people who produced some lovely prints. We're going to miss this space with its colourful structures and the screams from the rollercoaster. We will be reopening in mid April in our new space (more on that soon...)
