Seacourt is a friendly open-access print workshop based in the seaside town of Bangor, Northern Ireland. We offer membership, courses and resources for all, as well as our self-arranged residency programme.

We are strong believers in the magic of print and how it can transform lives. We have a comprehensive health and wellbeing programme as well as an educational resource for schools.

INTAGLIO PRINTMAKING RESOURCE

To celebrate Seacourt’s 40th anniversary, we have created an Online Intaglio Printmaking Workshop for you all. We believe in the transformative power of print to improve an individuals’ health and wellbeing. We hope this one hour workshop encourages others to return to printmaking or begin their printmaking journey.

You can find our FREE workshop here.

OUR STORY

Seacourt Print Workshop was founded in 1981 by Margaret Arthur and Jean Duncan. They wanted to be able to practice printmaking close to home and starting small, they established a print workshop. To help pay for overheads and purchase equipment they delivered courses to local people, then schools and the membership started to grow.
