This autumn, Staff Art Club is back and hosting a new series of creative workshops for Newcastle Hospitals Trust staff.

Join us to explore various printmaking techniques including lino relief printing, etching and screen printing; the sessions will support staff to realise their own creative ideas through printmaking. We’re excited to be working with printmaking extraordinaries, NewBridge Print Studio to deliver the workshops, including a screen-printing session at their print studio.
