Calling all music lovers and mini festival fans! Visit Bluecoat on 25 May for a hands-on printmaking workshop where families can design their very own festival posters featuring their favourite artists and bands, all part of the Bluecoat’s Big Music Weekend.

Guided by our friendly expert facilitators, children will get a chance to learn the basics of screen printing and even try pulling their own prints. It’s a creative and fun-filled session that everyone can enjoy, and best of all, you’ll get to take home your unique poster at the end!

Choose from two session times:

  • Session 1: 1pm–1.45pm
