We are delighted that our new studio layout and working processes to keep everyone safe is working really well. " Thank you for the huge efforts to make us all feel considered and safe in these strange times - the way the class was divided into A and B groups meant that there was never any crowding or waiting for the presses, it seemed to me that every detail had been thought through so carefully."
We have found exciting new premises at Gt Thurlow which will add a much needed second studio and a Gallery / Archive space. We need to raise £250,000 to make it happen. If you think you could help us achieve our new adventure please get in touch.
Understand the Jigsaw method and create a 2 or 3 colour print in one day using soft cut Lino. Suitable for those with some understanding of Lino printing.
A drypoint needle is used to scratch an image onto a plastic plate and ink is pushed into the grooves created by the needle to make a beautiful intaglio print.
“This grant will ensure we can financially continue to operate supporting both Artist printmakers and Tutors throughout these challenging times and allow us to continue planning for what was to be an exciting future in new premises.”

Stanley Jones founded the Curwen Print Study Centre in the 1990’s and he is determined that we secure its future for generations to come.
To continue to meet our mission and to allow much needed expansion, we have identified new premises at Great Thurlow just 10 a minute drive from here. The cost of converting the barn will be mainly met by The Thurlow Estate. However, we need to raise £250,000 to fine tune both studios, fit out the gallery space, buy additional equipment, pay for moving costs and to assist paying rent whilst we establish ourselves in our new location.
