Off Grid Art Club - For Teens!! - Printmaking - Term 3 2026
About
Get creative, get inky, and discover the exciting world of printmaking in this fun 6-week course designed especially for tweens and teens aged 11-17.Whether you're new to printmaking or already love making art, this hands-on course will introduce you to a range of exciting techniques while building creative confidence and practical studio skills.
Throughout the term you'll learn how to use a traditional printmaking press and professional printmaking inks while exploring three unique processes:
• Lino Block Printing on Fabric – Design and carve your own lino block before printing onto a tote bag, T-shirt or fabric item to create wearable art that's uniquely yours.
• Drypoint Perspex Etching – Scratch detailed drawings into Perspex plates and produce beautiful hand-pulled prints full of rich lines and texture.
• Monoprinting – Experiment with colour, layering and expressive mark-making to create one-of-a-kind prints using playful, painterly techniques.
As your skills grow, you'll learn about composition, texture, positive and negative space, colour, and image-making while gaining confidence using professional printmaking equipment in a real studio environment.
Print Lab is also a chance to step away from screens, slow down, and immerse yourself in making something by hand. It's a welcoming space where young artists can experiment, solve creative challenges, meet like-minded friends, and enjoy the satisfaction of seeing their own designs transformed into original prints.
Perfect for:
• Tweens and teens who love making art
• Young creatives wanting to learn new techniques
• Students interested in fashion, design and illustration
• Anyone looking for a fun, creative outlet after school
Parents can expect a safe, encouraging environment that nurtures creativity, builds confidence, develops problem-solving skills, and introduces participants to professional printmaking techniques in a supportive studio setting.
Classes are taught by artist and qualified art tutor Jeht Burgoyne, who has over 20 years' experience teaching children, teens and adults. Jeht holds a Diploma of Fine Arts, a Bachelor of Visual Arts, and a current Working With Children Check.
All materials are provided, including lino, inks, printing papers, Perspex plates, fabric printing materials, and full use of the studio's printmaking press and equipment. Just bring your creativity (and a pair of jeans, T-shirt or tote bag to personalise!).
