THE IRISH TIMES SUPPLEMENT ON ART IN THE CLASSROOM FEATURING THE BLACK CHURCH PRINT STUDIO
On 20 October The Irish Times published a supplement on Art in the Classroom, this included a feature on printmaking at the Black Church Print Studio. The article covered some basic introductory information on printmaking techniques for children, as well as providing a brief overview of printmaking history, and some examples of finished works by members of the studio. It is four pages long, and is available to download in PDF format from the column to the right of this page.
