Northern Print

What it’s like

Printmaking classes and a small gallery of print exhibitions, open just a few hours a week.

This is a print workshop and gallery, so the main things going on are printmaking classes and whatever's on the walls that month. There are exhibitions to wander round, and they also run printmaking classes if you fancy having a go yourself rather than just looking. School groups visit too, which tells you it's set up for hands-on learning rather than being a look-don't-touch sort of gallery.

The gallery itself only opens Thursday to Saturday, 12 noon till 3pm, which is a narrow window and easy to miss if you're planning a day around it. The site is upfront that opening times can be unpredictable beyond that, so it's not somewhere to just turn up on spec expecting the doors to be open. If you want a proper visit, or you're thinking about a class, contacting them ahead to check or arrange a time is the way to go.

It's wheelchair accessible, which is useful to know if that's a factor in where you head. Beyond that, there isn't much to go on for things like cost or exact ages the classes suit.
