Beltane Lino Printing Workshop with Acorn Print Studios

About this event

Little Living Room events are ecstatic to present a Beltane themed Lino Printing Workshop tutored and instructed by the wonderful Lorna Johnson - Acorn Print Studios

Come and join us in Holyrood park and learn how to lino print this Beltane. The workshop will explore spring themes, botanical plants and nature.

Beltane celebrates life and is the peak of spring and marks the beginning of summer, this workshop will be a light and fun introduction to printmaking where we will explore the natural environment around us and learn techniques for lino cutting. You don’t need to know anything about Beltane, you may just want to explore the flora and fauna of spring, or you can use this workshop to set some intentions and weave them into your creations.

You don’t need any previous experience of lino printing to attend, all materials will be supplied. Each participant will leave with their own lino prints and the lino they cut from which can be used again and again to make more prints. Full instructions of how to care for your lino will be provided at the workshop.

This event is suitable for all ages but we ask that anyone under 14 is accompanied by an adult. Please bring suitable clothing for being outside.

There are accessible toilets situated in the park. The coordinates of the location will be sent via email leading up to the event - it is not too far from the carpark at Holyrood Park.
