Leicester Print Workshop

We will be hosting our first annual contemporary print event, selling original prints on Saturday 13th July, 11am – 5pm.

Leicester Print Fair will showcase printmakers from across the UK, with artists coming from as far away as the North East of England and Suffolk. This free-to-attend event will promote printmaking in its various forms; including relief, letterpress, intaglio, monoprint, screenprinting, bookmaking and lithography.

All work, including original prints, textiles, greetings cards, jewellery, unique gifts and more will be for sale, with stalls taking over the whole LPW building. Visitors will be able to purchase work, meet participating artists and learn more about their work. This will be the perfect opportunity to buy an affordable, original and unique piece of art for your home. Artists will be offering high quality work, with prices suited to everyone’s budget.
