Explore printmaking using tetra pak and recycled materials to create beautiful intaglio prints using drypoint and collograph methods.
On this taster session you will experiment with mark making on recycled tetra pak and packaging using a variety of different tools such as dry point needles, craft knives, and roulette wheels.
You will learn how to use our traditional etching presses in the workshop, how to prepare soaked paper and how to transfer your chosen design onto the Tetra Pak.
The class will be taught in a step by step way with time for experimentation.

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.
