We are creating a flagship print workshop for Leicester and the Midlands. From these new premises we will be able to offer many more printmaking opportunities to artists, schools, community groups, learners and exhibition audiences. We look forward to opening our doors in Autumn 2015.
Moving to new premises is a major undertaking. Our new building is currently an empty warehouse in the city's Cultural Quarter. We are raising funds to transform it into a fit for purpose, fully accessible, centre with studio, exhibition and learning spaces.
We have worked hard to keep our designs as simple as possible and our project budget as lean as possible. The total expenditure is set at £737,000. We have been fortunate to receive the support of Leicester City Council, Arts Council England, trusts and foundations and we will be investing all the money we have raised and saved to date. We are over 95% of the way there and we need your support to buy printmaking equipment. As of 29 April 2015 we have £16,000 left to raise please give what you can to help us get over the line.
