What to Expect:

Participants can choose to decorate a provided tote bag (available for a small additional cost of £5 for two – one per participant) or bring a fabric item from home to personalise.

Create your own foam stamp board and design a midsummer masterpiece filled with bees, blooms, and all things bright and beautiful.

If you're bringing something from home, please make sure it meets the following criteria:

  • Plain (no existing patterns or prints)
  • Made of cotton or poly-cotton
  • Light in colour
  • Washed and clean
  • Ironed and crease-free
  • Flat

Suitable examples include:

  • T-shirt
  • Baby grow
  • Socks
  • Tea towel
  • Tote bag

Children and their adults will dive into a range of vibrant printmaking techniques to create beautiful, tactile takeaways. Think hanging mobiles, wearable art and even custom prints.

We’ll be exploring a variety of exciting processes, from making your own reusable foam stamps to our ever-popular stencil printing. Whether you're a returning enthusiast or a curious beginner, these workshops are all about creativity, hands-on fun, and taking home something truly personal.

Each session has a different focus and brand-new make, choose your favourite or join them all and have your own hand-made printed collection!
