Spread a little home-made festive cheer this year with hand printed Christmas cards!

Be transported to Christmas in the Victorian era – where Christmas cards first began…In this special three-hour workshop we will take inspiration from the magical setting of Kirkgate, the museum’s Victorian street. You will see the street dressed for Christmas and puzzle at some of the weird and wonderful cards Victorians invented.

Experienced teacher and artist, Becky Long-Smith will take you step-by-step through the process of creating your own lino printed cards.

Refreshments and all materials will be provided.

*Admission to York Castle Museum is included for the day of the workshop only.
