Develop your skills in letterpress techniques on this five-week follow on course.
Throughout the course you’ll have the opportunity to work with our metal type and wood type sets and various traditional presses to develop your ideas and knowledge of letterpress.
You’ll be encouraged to explore your own projects and work on existing ideas, with the support and guidance of the tutor. Along the way you’ll learn about letterpress context, history and technical terminology.
This course is ideal for those who already have a basic knowledge of letterpress and is aimed at those who have attended our Introduction to Letterpress Course or our Letterpress Taster Day. Those who have learnt some basic letterpress techniques elsewhere and would like a recap of their previous skills are also welcome to attend.

Access
Our aim is to bring printmaking to as many people as possible. By their nature, some printmaking processes involve an amount of physical effort. Leeds Print Workshop is based in a basement studio at Patrick Studios, a bespoke venue for artists operated by East Street Arts. It is wheelchair accessible, with a lift, larger than standard doors and accessible toilet facilities. We recognise that everybody’s accessibility needs may differ, therefore please email us at hello@leedsprintworkshop.org to discuss any concerns you may have before booking. There is one blue badge car parking space to the side of the building on Rider Street, subject to availability.
