Introduction to Kitchen Lithography
Online workshop for adults
19 – 20 October 2024
Saturday – Sunday, 14:00 – 17:30 BST
In this fun and friendly online weekender, you will learn how to create stunning lithographic prints using simple art materials and household items.
On the first day you'll explore the principles of lithography and discover how to create one-colour prints through a series of demonstrations and hands-on tasks led by illustrator and print-maker Viola Wang.
On the second day Viola will introduce colour options: hand colouring and two-colour prints. By the end of the weekend you’ll have created a small run of unique prints with a process that is environment-friendly and non-toxic.
Our small class size of no more than 20 students will ensure that you receive personalised feedback, troubleshooting and group support in a relaxed and friendly learning environment.
Whether you’re looking for a new medium to explore or a creative way to unwind, this weekender is for you! No previous experience of printing is required.
Please note is a repeat of the weekender we ran in May called ‘Make a Lithographic Print’.
