Creative Workshop: Block Printing

Join artist Georgie Fay to make unique paper and clay designs using woodcut printing techniques. 

Explore our Early People gallery and discover the journeys made and the materials used by Scotland’s early people. 

Back in the Learning Centre, create a woodcut with a design inspired by our collections. You will make your own woodcut template, printing on paper and clay.

This is a small class with a supportive and experienced teacher who will build your confidence to explore your creativity. All abilities are welcome at this relaxed and informal session.
