Workshop led by printmaker Charlotte Moreton in which children make their own handprinted Christmas cards and wrapping paper.
Charlotte Moreton is running a children's Christmas printing workshop at Salisbury Arts Centre on Saturday 5 December, from 10:30am to 12:00pm. It's held in the Art Room, at 58 Bedwin Street, SP1 3UW. The session is for kids to make their own handprinted Christmas cards and wrapping paper, using a variety of fun and safe techniques.
Moreton is a printmaker, painter and sculptor who's been teaching makers of all ages and abilities in and around Salisbury for 25 years. She developed many of her printmaking techniques with the Red Hot Press and works especially with monoprints, linocuts and etching. Her own art is built on observation and understanding nature, animals and landscapes, always looking for the surprises.
In the workshop, children will get to try out those same kinds of printmaking methods to create their own cards and wrapping paper. It's a hands-on session, so they'll leave with something they've actually made themselves, and the techniques they use are safe for young hands. It's a good way to get them involved in the Christmas prep early, rather than just buying the cards and paper from a shop.
