Event Details

Explore art and ideas together in our new Saturday-morning workshops for families, Make / Build / Share, led by artists at The Ruskin.

Experiment with printmaking with artist Natalie Linney, creating resist rubbings of natural materials that will come to life when we add colour.

Natalie Linney is a textile artist, and creative facilitator based in Manchester, UK. After graduating with BA (Hons) in Visual Arts from Salford University Natalie continued to develop her creative practice focusing primarily on print-based techniques.

In her practice, Natalie utilises ancient dyeing techniques with natural and man-made objects found in the contemporary urban environment to produce entirely unique textile pieces. Working with traditional methods, she creates striking and delicate patterns that emerge in unpredictable ways to reflect the materials used and the place in which it was produced.

Age Guidance: 4 – 8 yrs, and their grown-ups
