Teen prints!
The Whitworth Art Gallery in Manchester will be offering children from 11-16 the opportunity to learn new creative skills this summer. The weekly sessions will explore a whole host of creative activities from printmaking to sculpture. The first session led by Alan Birch focussed on the exhibition of traditional and contemporary wallpapers currently on show. Artists worked from the wallpapers and then later used a variety of textured wallpapers ( some from sample books from the Whitworths collection ) to create their own plates which were later printed in colour.
