Cork Printmakers has launched its new and much enhanced website, which offers a range of improved features, including better navigation as well as clear and concise information about our activities. We have introduced user-friendly tools such as downloadable booking and application forms. You can join our mailing list enabling you to be one of the first to learn about our evening and weekend courses, events and exhibitions. You can also fill out a simple questionnaire which will tell us how to better inform you of our activities in the future. Our Artists section is now greatly enhanced presenting a selection of work and a short biography from each artist. We hope the information, tools and visual appeal of our website gives you a more enjoyable and informative experience. The site has been designed by Cork-based design company Rocketmedia.
Cork Printmakers organises a year-round programme of printmaking workshops for both beginners and experienced printmakers. Our new course programme is now available. If you want to be the first to hear about our courses why don’t you join our mailing list.
