This day course is intended for people with mixed levels of experience who would like to explore materials and develop their printing skills. The tutor will ensure that total beginners will get the instruction and support they need, and that those who are more advanced in the subject will be given tasks with more challenge.

You will create a collagraph print displaying a range of surface designs and textures. You will learn the processes of preserving the design, Inking up and printing. You will learn how to experiment with different techniques, colours and processes to further develop the images.

The lesson will be classroom based and supported by Google Classroom. This is our virtual learning space which will enhance your learning experience and will be used for resources, assessment, as well as to extend learning and support independent learning.  You will be able to access Google Classroom via your secure leicesterlearns account. So that you can be successful in learning the subject, we do require that you arrive promptly.  You will be asked to contribute to a Learning Plan on which you and the tutor will be able to chart your progress. You will be expected to comment briefly in writing on your learning, and your tutor will give you feedback and suggestions on ways in which you can improve. Extra costs: All equipment will be provided for you to use in this one day session. You may wish to wear old clothes or bring an apron or old shirt as printing can be quite messy.

There will be no exams or qualifications, as the course will focus on creative activities. The Tutor will use a combination of group demonstrations and one-to-one support.

We have a range of courses available to expand your knowledge and enhance wellbeing. More information and how to enrol is available on our website.
