QG Group Printmaking Demonstrations

To further support the education and appreciation of Australian printmaking, Queenscliff Gallery (QG) is now offering group printmaking demonstrations. Offered during and outside standard opening hours, including Tuesday, these sessions provide insight into traditional printmaking techniques, the materials and processes involved, and the enduring relevance of print within Australian contemporary and historical art practice.

QG welcomes booking enquiries from schools, educators, workplaces and groups seeking a meaningful cultural and educational experience.

Group bookings start at $450 and depend on group size, catering requirements, and the artist your group would like to have present.
