All the tools and materials you need are provided, including carving tools, linoleum blocks, printing inks and paper. You can simply arrive ready to create!
Bring an idea, a sketch or a photo you'd like to use as inspiration for your design. You don't need to prepare a finished drawing beforehand.
Yes! You'll create your own linocut design and print a small series of copies on paper. Each print may have its own unique character, giving you handmade pieces to keep, display or share.
Absolutely! It's a lovely way to enjoy a few creative hours on your own or spend quality time making something with friends. Groups are kept small to ensure everyone receives individual guidance and support.
