LINO PRINTING
FRIDAY 7 AUGUST, 10:00 AM - 15:00 PM
THE WORKSHOP
HOSTED BY SU MORRIS
AT SOL CREATIVE FOUNDRY
Please note: Lino printing involves sharp cutting tools. Full safety instruction is given at the start of the session, and it's important this is followed throughout. The craft is hands-on and does require a reasonable degree of hand strength and dexterity, particularly when working with traditional lino. If you have any concerns about mobility, strength or dexterity in your hands or wrists, do get in touch before booking so we can talk it through — where we can, we'll suggest adjustments or a softer lino to make the session more comfortable.
