Apolline offers you an original and exciting craft workshop: linocut. For around 3 hours, you'll be introduced to one of the most popular printing techniques.

Course of the workshop (3h) :

• Presentation of the history of engraving and the different techniques used.
• Demonstration of the different possibilities.
• Creation of your design by determining what will be white and what will be in color on your image, and then transferring this design to a lino plate.
• Engrave your image in the lino plate, using various tools on loan. Apolline will be there to help and guide you every step of the way.
• Inking of your plate with a roller, followed by the final step: printing. At the end of the workshop, you'll leave with your lino matrix and the beautiful prints you've made.

This workshop, open to all, is ideal for getting away from it all and learning a new discipline! It's also a great gift idea for a DIY fan.
