Create unique patterned textiles using Pacifica printmaking techniques in this fun, full-day workshop.
This workshop is designed for you to learn about different ways to print woodblocks on to textiles. Explore layering and multiple colourways through a section of pre-carved blocks inspired by Pacifica patterns and imagery.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have your very own piece of hand-printed fabric and tote bag to be used or given as a gift. You can also bring along a piece of clothing or fabric from home to upcycle into something new and original.
Numa will also have some of his original hand-printed merch for sale there too!
Book early to avoid disappointment - only 15 spaces available! Ideal for beginners. Age: 16 +
What to bring:
• An apron or old shirt as you’ll be working with permanent inks.
• Any piece of clothing or other fabric items you’d like to print.
• All other materials provided.
