There will be an opportunity for pupils to visit our amazing printmaking studio.  They will work with local printmakers to create their own prints using a variety of different techniques.  Look out for further details of these opportunities in the near future.

Drypoint Printing Outreach KS3, GCSE and A Level

We currently offer drypoint printmaking as an outreach session as either a full or half day workshop.  Experiment with mark making, etch a drypoint plate, ink up and make prints using our portable etching press.

At Gainsborough’s House we want to ensure your school gets the best visit for you and your pupils.  You can choose to build your own visit or pick one of our suggested day or half day workshop theme programmes.

Each workshop theme offers the following types of learning opportunities:

  • interactive sessions led by our learning team in the galleries
  • well resourced, teacher-led small group sessions in Gainsborough’s House
  • creative workshop sessions in our landscape studio led by our learning team

You can pick exclusively from one workshop theme, or mix and match across any of the themes.

Each session lasts 45 minutes and you can book up to 4 sessions for a full-day visit or two for a half day.

Outreach Service

Our outreach sessions are available as full or half days.  A half day session is £175 and a full day is £250.  A mileage charge of £45p per mile will apply for schools outside a 20 mile travelling distance of Gainsborough’s House.
