Description
Explore nature through printmaking magic. Ready to get creative with nature? Join us for a hands-on Botanical Gelli Plate Printing Workshop – a fun and accessible way to turn leaves, flowers, and natural textures into stunning, layered prints! What is Gelli Plate Printing? Gelli plate printing is a monoprinting technique that uses a soft, reusable gel-like plate to create beautifully detailed and unique prints – no press required! You’ll learn how to use real botanical materials to make dreamy textures and organic patterns that can’t be replicated. In this workshop, you’ll: - Collect and compose with natural elements. - Experiment with colour, layering, and texture. - Create a series of one-of-a-kind botanical prints to take home. - Enjoy a relaxed, mindful art session inspired by nature. No experience necessary – just curiosity and a love of getting your hands painty! All materials provided. Come play, print, and connect with the beauty of the natural world in a whole new way. Treat yourself and indulge in some me-time with a glass of fizz or soft drink and sweet treat included. Suitable for adults and young people aged 13+ (under 18s should be accompanied by an adult, soft drinks only provided for under 18s - ID may be required). Limited to a maximum of 6 adults - book in advance to avoid disappointment. Please note the workshop maybe be cancelled if minimum numbers are not met.
