This evening class aims to teach the technique of nature printing. With the guidance of expert print-artist Rebecca Jewell, you will use a variety of different leaves and ferns to create your own prints directly onto paper.

The class will take place in the newly-built studio in the Linnean Society, which has a wonderful cabinet display of specimens, books and objects.

This two-hour workshop costs £30 and is open to all.

Registration is essential to secure your place.
Places will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
Doors will open at 17.45 and the workshops will begin at 18.00. A talk will be happening in our Meeting Room at the same time so please make yourself known to staff at the reception.
All necessary materials will be provided.
