There is lots to get excited about here at Curwen in 2026. We have updated our existing programme and added new things to tempt you whether you are new to printmaking, wanting to refresh skills or keen to push yourself and your practice further. Our regular Tutors offer an array of different techniques and these are added to by some exciting courses delivered by visiting Tutors with specific specialities. There really is something for everyone and we look forward to welcoming you to Curwen.
