Prints at the Whitaker.
Pupils from Crawshawbooth Primary School spent warm summer days at the Whitaker in Rawtenstall, working with the printmaker Alan Birch. Pupils spent time in the museum, looking at objects from the local history and natural history collection and hearing about the stories behind the objects. Working with Alan, pupils produced a series of drawings before translating these into drypoints and relief prints.
