Queer Art Club London and Queer Writers Group are collaborating !!!

We are excited to invite you to join us for this two part creative writing and printmaking workshop. Here we will be exploring and celebrating our queerness through creativity, collaboration writing and print making. Taking inspiration from writers and poets such as Audre Lorde and Franny Choi, artists like Jenny Holzer and organisations such as Black Lodge Press.

Lino Cutting and Printmaking, transform your written work into lino prints with Artist and Arts Facilitator Finn Yvo at Queer Art Club @The Glory, Haggerston.

Here you will transform your writing into print, either using the text itself or creating imagery inspired by your text. You will experiment with typography, learn how to create a linocut and print your work using inks. We will also create a small zine collating all the prints together to mark the occasion. This will then be digitised and shared with the group.

You will leave with your original art piece, a lino stamp, a few written pieces of work, and techniques to continue writing, creating and print making..

This is for people of all abilities and is a space where you can freely explore your creativity and have some fun 🙂

All materials provided.

Be respectful or you will be asked to leave. Strictly no office, hen or stag parties allowed.

ACCESSIBILITY:

The Glory is a very old building with pre-existing accessibility issues and while we’ve strived to make the space user friendly, there is no ‘easy’ wheelchair accessibility to all areas of the venue.

MAIN BAR ACCESSIBILITY:

The main bar is accessible, though the toilets are up a flight of 3 stairs with a handrail. Wheelchairs cannot access the toilets however. There is a local restaurant a few doors down who have an accessible toilet that they are happy for our customers to use.

BASEMENT ACCESSIBILITY:

To access shows in the basement there is a narrow flight of 12 stairs with a handrail.

SEATING:

The main bar has plenty of seats and tables. Ticketed shows are seated unless otherwise stated.
