Printmaking: Letterpress Type Flags & Banners

Trade your usual night out for an evening of creative experimentation and social connection! Our weekly beginner-friendly Art Socials invite you to try hands-on creative techniques like miniatures, screen printing, and watercolour in a relaxed, social setting. Come solo or with friends, and leave with something you made yourself!

For sports fans and creatives alike!

Get ready for World Cup game days or create new artwork for your home through this fun and traditional printmaking technique. Design and print your own pennant flag from antique wood type on a printing press.  While your flag dries, experiment with banner making with cut-out letters from previously printed alphabets and assemble a unique text-based artwork.
