Foundations in Art: Printmaking Club for 8-12s

• Every Tuesday starting 11th November for 6 weeks

• Sessions booked as a 6-week block

• Ages: 8-12 years

Join us after school at Yarn for a six-week course designed to help young creatives explore the art of printmaking.

Over six weeks, the class will explore a range of traditional and contemporary printmaking techniques, including mono printing, collagraph printing, and lino printing.

Through guided practical activities, they will develop key skills in design, composition, and mark making while learning about influential artists who work within these methods.

This club offers a structured yet creative environment for pupils to experiment, problem-solve, and produce a portfolio of individual prints. Led by Naoise McGeer, an experienced art educator, who brings a gentle, student-led approach to her teaching.

All materials provided.

• Start Date: 11th November

• Time: 4.30 pm - 5.45 pm
