Print & Pattern with Susan Leen

Using the museum’s collection of wood type and your own hand-carved blocks, you will print images combining type and pattern. We will look at composition, colour mixing and colour combinations and learn how to hand-print our designs using linocut and letterpress. In this way, you can create a modular design and/or background and create different combinations and variations with typography and pattern.

Includes all materials and a break for lunch. This workshop is conducted on the ground floor of the Museum, which is wheelchair accessible via the Café entrance, as well as in the portable cabin outside the main building, which is wheelchair accessible by ramp.

Price: €110

The experience in this museum was amazing! Better than I expected. It's really interesting to see so many different old print machines and how they worked. Our guide Liam made my day. He explained all the history to us. His English is so easy to understand. Also he is very kind and polite. I totally recommend a visit to this place.

The reviews say it all - excellent museum and Ciaran was a hoot. We enjoyed this museum immensely - probably the highlight of our few days in Dublin. Grabbed a takeaway coffee and smoothie from the neighbouring cafe which seemed very popular.
