HIGHLAND PRINT STUDIO CLASS PROGRAMME 2025:

The Highland Print Studio Class Programme for 2025 is now LIVE! Starting in February and running through until June, this block of classes is varied and provides an opportunity for people to come by and take part in many areas of Printmaking and immerse themselves in our studio facilities here in heart of Inverness. 2024 saw the studio run a number of successful classes bringing many people into the studio and introducing them to printmaking. Whether they were exploring something entirely new and engaging in creativity, developing their practice in a specific technique or an experienced printmaker trying something different, the 2024 season of classes did it all! We wanted to carry that momentum over and make sure to bring a wide range of classes and dates to ensure that people had the opportunity to take part and join us in a class in 2025.

PRINTMAKING

Discover what makes printmaking unique

Printmaking is a skilled and hands-on process, the roots of which date back centuries. Depending on the technique used, the artist will cut into a block of wood, or draw into and etch a copper plate, ink it up and make a print. Although they may produce a number of prints, each one will be unique.

HIGHLAND PRINT STUDIO: SHAPECHANGERS

Throughout November 2023, a remarkable series of temporary outdoor artworks created by young people was unveiled along the National Cycle Network in Scotland. ‘ShapeChangers’ aimed to empower young people and inspire residents of Glasgow, Alloa, Greenock and Inverness to explore their local areas by walking, wheeling, and cycling on the National Cycle Network.

This was how Sustrans Scotland introduced their flagship arts project of 2023, with Highland Print Studio being one of four organisations chosen to work with young people to create substantial artworks for the network. The principle behind the project was to allow the young people to learn all aspects involved in creating a public artwork.
