Printfest is more than your average exhibition – it’s a unique opportunity to really get under the skin of this wonderfully creative art-form, with all the displaying artists on-hand to talk to you about their practice. There are seven workshops to choose from and book, there is Ulverston Fringe venues, some with miniature exhibitions, extending out of The Coro and into the town, it’s a festival that genuinely lives and breathes the mantra that good art should be available and affordable for everyone.
As well as being able to browse, talk, and buy from the likes of Printmaker of the Year 2024 Bronwen Sleigh and Printmakers’ Printmaker Sally Adkins, you can vote for your favourite artist, purchase your own printmaking supplies, enter for the Prize Draw, refresh yourself with a drink and bite to eat. Take home a momento and the beautiful collectable Printfest catalogue, and much more.
