Young Creators: Printmaking
Sat Jul 18, 10:00 - Sat Jul 18, 16:00
Cape Town Creative Academy
ABOUT
Lino Print Workshop
You will carve, ink, roll, press, and reveal, and work directly with materials to bring your ideas into form. You will learn how line, texture, and contrast are cut into a surface and transferred onto paper or cloth.
Printmaking builds patience and control. It encourages experimentation and a clear understanding of process.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced creative, you will work in a focused studio environment that supports making and exploration. You will leave with finished prints, practical skills, and greater confidence in your work.
There is a particular value in creating multiples — in seeing one idea take shape again and again, refined through each iteration and held in your hands.
INFO
1-Day weekend workshop ideal for young and older adults (16 years +)
What you need to bring
- The CTCA will supply all materials
- Bring a light lunch. Snacks, water, coffee and tea will be available.
What you will take home
You will leave with your own final lino print, beautifully finished in an A5 wooden frame made for you in CTCA’s wood workshop. You will also take home your unique design, printed by your own hands on various materials, along with the practical knowledge and confidence to continue printmaking as a satisfying creative hobby or even the starting point for a small business creating unique, artsy items.
