Treasures in Print: Printmaking Inspired by the Herefordshire Hoard

Discover the stories buried beneath Herefordshire’s soil in this hands-on printmaking workshop inspired by the extraordinary Herefordshire Hoard.

Participants will explore patterns, symbols, and imagery drawn from Anglo-Saxon and Viking art, using the Hoard’s exquisite metalwork as a springboard for creative expression.

Guided by an experienced printmaker, you’ll experiment with mark-making techniques, carve your own lino or foam blocks, and produce a series of unique prints that reinterpret the craftsmanship of early medieval Britain.

Whether you’re fascinated by history, eager to try a new art form, or looking for a creative way to connect with local heritage, this workshop offers a welcoming space for all skill levels.

All materials provided. Just bring your curiosity and be ready to unearth your artistic potential.

This event is being hosted at Leominster Museum from 5:30-7:00pm. Please arrive 15 minutes before event start for check in.
