Gelli Printing for Young Adults(14-18)
Come along and have a go at using a gelli plate to make some exciting mono prints.
We'll be using stencils, plants and other recycled bits and bobs with acrylic paint to
make some colourful, textural one-off prints. It's messy, great fun and very addictive.
You've been warned!
