Printmaking
for children
Learn how to print
Funen Printmaking Studio, located in the heart of Odense, invites children aged 7–15 to an exciting graphic course. Here they get the opportunity to draw and print in an inspiring environment under the guidance of professional artists and printers.
The course introduces different techniques and gives children who love to draw and experiment the chance to transform their ideas into unique graphic works. We finish with a small exhibition, and each child gets a collection of their own prints to take home as a souvenir.
