Children’s Workshop | Summer Art Club: Prints and Pieces Collagraph | Age 7+

Learn how to create a series of beautiful images using a printing technique called collagraph*.

Artist Educator Helen Friend will lead you through this Summer Art Club workshop, exploring patterns, shapes and forms from works in our collection and using them as inspiration to create our own unique design for a collagraph block. We might choose to arrange our patterns and shapes to resemble a face, or a landscape, or we might want to make a wonderful decorative pattern out of them.

Once our collagraph blocks are made, we will then print them onto a range of different papers, using specialist printing inks, to create wonderfully unique works of art.

* A collagraph is a collage of materials of various textures glued on to a printing plate. The plate is often made of thin wood or card.
