Exploring British Folklore through Lino Printing with Rhiannon Kenny

Using lino cutting and hand printing techniques you will be invited to dive into the symbolism of the mermaid in British folklore.

Join us in an exploration of the ancient story of the Mermaid of Zennor, a traditional folktale from a coastal village in Cornwall.

We will be taking inspiration from the beautifully engraved Mermaid of Zennor Bench, which was carved in the 1500s to commemorate the story.

This workshop is open to all and welcomes beginners and intermediate printers alike.

Please note - participants must be 18+
