Our Summer Printmaking Courses for 2024 are now live!
Edinburgh Printmakers’ popular Summer Courses take place over 3 or 4 days, for an extended and comprehensive introduction to fine art printmaking processes. These are a great way to create some beautiful art prints and meet like-minded creative people.
Processes you can learn include screenprinting, etching, relief printing, and the protected heritage craft of stone lithography.
All courses are suitable for complete beginners, and completion of any of these courses entitles you to a free 4-month Associate Membership in our printmaking studio, so that you can expand on what you’ve learned.

When you book onto a summer course, you can also get a discount for our onsite apartment at Castle Mills around your time in the studio. We also partner with StayCity Aparthotels and can offer preferred rates to those joining a course over the summer.
