Workshops

There is a different workshop run every Saturday on a wide variety of disciplines.

One or more of the teaching team, all highly experienced printmakers, leads each workshop. All workshops are designed to provide a complete experience of each discipline culminating in the production of a set of prints by each participant.

Two-day workshops on consecutive Saturdays and Sundays have recently been introduced to allow some of the techniques to be explored more thoroughly.

All workshops are suitable for beginners as well as experienced printmakers.

No induction is required for workshops.

Six-Week Introductory Course Level 1 and Level II

 If you are interested in learning about different types of printmaking, here is the perfect opportunity. No prior experience or particular artistic skills are required.

Level One - Each Wednesday morning for six consecutive weeks. During a three-hour session, a different printmaking technique is introduced using both traditional and contemporary techniques. Three highly experienced printmakers run the course, each passionate about their work and keen to share their expertise.

Level Two - The learning continues. This is also a six week consecutive course on Wednesday mornings. It is a more in-depth exploration of selected techniques from the Level One. This is a natural progression for some people from this course, however it is open to anyone with prior experience in printmaking.

One and two day workshop ~ £80.00/160.00
Six Week Course ~ £180.00
1 to 1 Critique per hour ~ £25.00
1 to 1 Practical per hour ~ £40.00

Iron Press Printmaking Club

In January 2022 I introduced the Iron Press Printmaking Club for experienced printmakers; people who are able to work safely in the studio without supervision. The idea is that experienced people, familiar with the facilities and studio operation, can help and support each other.

Invitations to become Print Club Members, will include a free Induction to cover H&S.

People who use the studio regularly or experienced printmakers will be invited to join the club, by Iain. The invitation reflects Health and Safety issues and has nothing to do with anyones work.

To join the Printmakers club, please send us a request via email, and we will get back to you.

The Membership will be made up of the following –

People who are already members

Experienced printers with evidence of printmaking experience

Printers that already use Iron Press and are familiar with its operation

Anyone who has completed both the old Beginners and Intermediate Courses

Anyone who completes both new Introductory Courses

 **Anyone who has already completed the Beginners Course need only complete the Introductory II.

All members will have completed a Health and Safety Induction.
