The Arts Collective Print Group Winter Exhibition - The Station

A diverse miscellany of work and styles produced by the Arts Collective Print Group

This Richmond Station Platform exhibition is of contemporary prints created by the community-based The Arts Collective Print Group, revealing the creative output of supportive fellows.

The Group was formed in 2019 and its members are the users of the Friday Rural Arts Open Studios in Thirsk. In the Studio there are two professional Printing Presses supplied by Rural Arts, the Collective pays for all the equipment, tools, inks, that they use.

The Print Open Studio is a very inspiring place and so beneficial to have the opportunity to experiment with the various methods of printing. Focussing on handmade print methods, Lino printing, Collagraphs, Mono printing & Intaglio, you can see from the range of work on display each member has their own style .

The community numbers 21 and there can be ten printers in the Studio on the day, working on their own ideas.

The creative support from the other members is invaluable, it offers opportunities to develop skills and allows you, with input from the group, to work out how to make your ideas happen in print while exploring texture, pattern, design & colour.

The Exhibition showcases the accomplishments of these emerging Artists and will hopefully inspire visitors.
