Print Making
Students look at and discuss different forms of printing from the gallery’s collection. They then undertake different processes to create their own unique prints to take away using the museums printing equipment.
It is helpful for the students if a topic for image making is decided upon before coming to the class. Ideas could link to current topics of study at school.
