Add to calendar:

Are you interested in stepping into the wonderful world of printmaking? 

Are you not quite sure where to start, or what will best suit your practice and way of working?  


An introduction to electro-etching; a safe, clean, low-tox alternative to traditional copper etching. 
You will learn copper electro-etching and printing processes, working with and gaining understanding of the materials and equipment involved.
This short, hands-on taster workshop is suitable for both total beginners and experienced printmakers looking to incorporate electro-etching into their practice.

These fun, informative and relaxed workshops will give you a taste of the many amazing printmaking techniques we offer as part of our education programme, without having to commit to a full course. Bring along your ideas and we’ll provide you with everything else you need to make and take away some fresh-off the press prints!

All materials and tuition is included. Our expert printmaker, Caoimhe Dalton will be there to support you during the process – and answer any questions you may have about exploring the technique further if you so wish.
