About
In the Main Gallery the Tabletop Print Fair presents 20+ printmakers and collectives, whose work spans a variety of methods including screen-print, etching, cyanotype, woodblock and monoprint. Drop-in over the weekend to discover and purchase original prints, cards and handmade items direct from printmakers, and source the perfect gifts for yourself or a loved one this holiday season.
A programme of workshops and courses invites visitors to be inspired and learn how to create lithographs, block prints and monoprints of their own. Little River Press and Will Mower will be hosting drop-in workshops in the Main Gallery for those who’d like to experiment in a fun and relaxed environment, and attendees looking for something more immersive can join Rachel Cohen’s full weekend printmaking course.
Families are also invited to come along to the Amazing Art Cart creative workshop, where they will guide children through designing and making their very own print to take home.
