Baner'i Bannau: Print making sessions @ Theatr Brycheiniog 3 sessions: 28 & &

Would you like to try some printing techniques?
Would you like to create beautiful silk flags with the community that celebrate Brecons artistic festivals?
Flags are signifiers of identity, place and belonging and indeed protest - in recent months, flags also have the power to divide and disrupt community. The aim of this project is to bring the community together, to celebrate the towns sights, sounds and cultural activity whilst having fun.Over 3 x 3 hour sessions (please note attendance at all 3 sessions is required)
This block of sessions is aimed at ages 14-25 years
Dates: 28 & 29 May & 21 June Time: 1pm- 4pm
Please get in touch if you have accessibility requirements.As part of a small group, with an artist, you will develop a design brief under the title "Brecon: Sounds and Visions" inspired by Brecon's colourful and rich festival scene and the beauty of the place itself.
You will try out simple block printing techniques and learn about positive and negative printing.
You will design and make your own lino block and try out your print on paper and fabric.
You may also try simple screen printing techniques.
As a group you will combine the different print techniques to create a vision for the final design of four community silk flags and work together to produce these.These flags, and eight others will be unveiled to Brecons public at the launch of Brecon Choir Festival during the week of 13th July 2026.In addition to the flags themselves, the group will select from their prints and designs to create a display to be exhibited at Theatr Brycheiniog.This project is run by The Muse Agency CIC in collaboration with The Yard Print Studio, thanks to funding from PAVO, Brecon Choir Festival, Brecknock Art Trust, The Audrey Tyler Charity and support from Brecon Volunteers Bureau, Theatr Brycheiniog and The Muse, Brecon
