Festive Prints Christmas Card Workshop

Join us in the Creative Zone on Saturday 13th for a fun Christmas card printmaking session!

Children will create their very own set of robin Christmas cards, perfect for sending to loved ones. Guided by our Creative Learning Officer, they will explore a range of printmaking techniques, from sketching their design to transferring, inking and printing onto card.

This workshop has been inspired by the poetry of Seamus Heaney:
'And the robin – you can hear him from the hedges, His notes like gold coins jingled for pure glee'.

(A translation by Seamus Heaney of the poem, ‘Arano’ – ‘1 Ploughing’, from the collection, L’ ultima passeggiata - The Last Walk, a sequence of 16 madrigals by the Italian Giovanni Pascoli)
