Bath Artists Printmakers is run as a cooperative by its members. We enjoy facilities for traditional etching, aquatint, dry point, monoprint, photopolymer, relief, collagraph, and carborundum processes. In addition, a bookbinding group meets weekly on Wednesday mornings (making the studio unavailable for printmaking at these times).
New members with printmaking experience are welcome. If you're new to printmaking but want to learn, we run courses in various techniques.
Follow us on Instagram to see examples of members' work and get news of events and exhibitions.
We offer gift vouchers which can be exchanged for courses. If you'd like to purchase a gift voucher, please email us at admin@bathartistprintmakers.co.uk.
Members have access to the workshop's several presses and other shared equipment. Basic printmaking materials are provided, and a range of papers can be purchased at cost price.
Members exhibit regularly, either individually or as part of a group. We take part in Larkhall Open Studios at the beginning of May and there is a Christmas Workshop open evening. We have permanent display space at Bath's Royal United Hospital (RUH) and members display work in our workshop window month by month.
If you're interested in joining us, taking a course, or you want to find out about any aspect of our activity please contact us and we'll be delighted to help. Someone will gladly arrange to show you round the workshop or answer your questions. We're very keen to share our enthusiasm!
