Printmaking Together: What alternative future can emerge as a result?

In this free, zine-making workshop we invite you to imagine the plant Japanese knotweed differently, sparking lively critical and creative debate.

Printmaking together: What alternative future can emerge as a result? Tuesday 24th January, 3pm to 6pm, Online, Free, 18+, Women* Only

Together we will print with the plant to generate new insights and imagine alternative and shared futures, exploring images of Japanese Knotweed through stencilling, collage and one-of-a-kind monotype prints from nature. 

Please bring Japanese knotweed (if you have some, if not it will be provided) questions, difficulties, issues, and experimental thinking styles. No specific gardening or horticultural knowledge required.  

Natural paints, Japanese Knotweed Paper, and an information package will be available for the participants at Glasgow Women’s Library in advance.
