Workshops are held in my studio which is part of the Outer Spaces network at 3 Redheughs Avenue, Edinburgh, EH12 9RH. Outer Spaces at Edinburgh Park is in a repurposed commercial office space. Workshops are a wonderful opportunity to meet fellow print enthusiasts and share ideas while enjoying a creative and relaxed atmosphere.
About Outer Spaces
Outer Spaces is a charity collaborating with artists, art collectives, organisations, and commercial property owners to occupy and activate the nation’s empty commercial spaces. Outer Spaces offer access to empty shops, offices and industrial space for artists working across disciplines to research and make their work. The organisation programmes residencies and projects to help sustain and support artistic practice and they commission artists to engage audiences with art practice. Outer Spaces are committed to providing accessible, welcoming, and inclusive spaces and are open to new ideas from artists and partners. outerspaces.org

Have c{art}, will travel...
​
I offer letterpress, papermaking or bookbinding workshops that can suit all ages and abilities. I have a passion to spread the (printed) word. Workshops or drop-ins can tie in to a community or creative event and are a good way to offer a participatory public experience and provide a bespoke keepsake of the day. These are tailored to suit a specific themed event, school project, group activity, celebration or used as a team building exercise.
​
I use accessible approaches to workshops and bring materials to deliver a letterpress or wider print experience to any pop up location. I have a mobile c{art} which can be set up in most locations and a range of other tools and equipment that can be set up inside for a more formal, involved workshop experience.

Print is fun and there is magic in the joy of getting ink on paper whatever your age and ability. I believe that the freedom of the press belongs to anyone who has access to one so am happy to bring one to you! Get in touch to discuss the possibilities…
