Etching
Etching is a process which involves printing from a metal plate that has
been ‘bitten’ by a caustic liquid. Once etched, a plate may be used many
times to produce a series of prints. Etching used to be achieved with
substances quite toxic to the environment. This workshop will use a safe
etchant that can easily be neutralised and soluble, waterbased inks -
both can be disposed of simply and safely.
Come and learn about the intaglio printing process and make your own
unique etchings (10x15cm on 14x19cm paper) for framing, or for making
into greetings cards or albums. We will produce as many plates/prints as
time allows.
This workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as those who
are looking to extend their printmaking skills.
All materials, a light lunch and refreshments are included in the
workshop fee.

Chinese Brush Painting - Autumnal Screens
As Autumn approaches and the nights draw in the creative spirit awakens.
Chinese brush painting on a balsa wood screen offers room for a creative
rush. Taking inspiration from autumn flora and fauna we will set about

Chinese Xuan paper backed by muslin to give strength and more permanency
to the work.
Some experience of Chinese painting is useful but not essential.
All materials, a light lunch and refreshments are included in the
workshop fee.

Watercasting Precious Metals
Have a go at a fun and sustainable metalworking skill in this half day
watercasting workshop. Bring along any hallmarked silver or gold
jewellery or small objects that you would like to transform into unique,
organic new shapes: perhaps you have some broken items, or inherited
some jewellery that has meaning but doesn't suit your taste, for
example, and you are looking for a way to make it your own.
With guidance from the tutor you will melt your metal in a crucible and
then drop it into a container of water to create beautiful, undulating
forms. Your tutor will let you know how you can use these to make your
own jewellery at a later date, or join us for the Silver Jewellery in a
Day workshop on 30th October to turn your forms into completed pieces.
This workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as more
experienced jewellery makers.

Quirky Clay Birds
Spend a day creating your own unique quirky bird sculpture out of clay.
You will learn sculpting techniques and how to work with clay to build a
3D model, decorated with lines and marks to add texture and character.
Take inspiration from the examples that your tutor will bring, or come
along with your own ideas. Once your bird has been fired, you can paint
it as you like at home. Hats optional!
This workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with
clay experience.
All materials, a light lunch and refreshments are included in the
workshop fee. Please note that your bird will need to be fired after the
workshop, so you will either have to collect it from the college at a
later date or pay the tutor for postage on the day.

Social Camera Club
Join us for a six week sociable morning photography club. Each week
there will be a new theme or challenge to try, and along the way you
will learn useful techniques to take the best photographs you can of a
variety of subjects. Whether you are dusting down an expensive DSLR
camera that has been sitting on your shelf for a while, or just bringing
along your smart phone, you will get something out of the fun,
educational and supportive sessions.
The aim of the sessions is to encourage people who want to become a
better photographer, learn more, get the most from your equipment, get
inspired, make friends and meet others who share your passion. At the
end of the six weeks you will be invited to submit your favourite
photographs for a joint exhibition.
All levels of experience are welcome, from beginners wanting to learn,
to experienced photographers looking for some new inspiration in good
company.
All materials are included in the workshop fee, but please bring along
the camera you want to use. An optional lunch is available after the
sessions for an additional £7.50 per day. Please enquire when booking.
