Nollaig na mBan or Women's Christmas is celebrated annually on the 6th January, join us in advance on the 28th December, to create cards or mini prints celebrating women and discuss how important letterpress was for suffragettes.
We’ll celebrate the suffragettes who used this classic printing technique to get their message out!
In a day packed with stories about inspiring women, as well as creativity, you’ll learn about Mary Leadbeater and other women lost in history who used print powerfully to make the case for social justice. They wielded the power of print and the pamphet in the 18th- and 19th- century abolitionist and suffragette movements to great effect!
Drawing on their example, you’ll learn how to print postcards with poems or words inspired by these courageous women, using vintage text on a mobile letterpress.
Readers are advised to check with the venue before relying on the details published here.
