22th January / 18:00 - 20:30

Join us for an inspiring and fun workshop as we celebrate the Chinese New Year. In 2025, we enter the Year of the Snake and bid farewell to the Year of the Dragon (2024). The Chinese zodiac, with its twelve animals and unique attributes, is a rich tradition filled with myths and stories.

What to expect?

Northing will share tales about the zodiac animals to spark creativity and inspire your card designs.

Åshild Kanstad Johnsen, an illustrator and children’s book author, will present some drawing techniques via her sketch book, inspired by her travels to South East Asia. You’ll learn various drawing techniques to use in your own cards.

Pamflett will provide a simple introduction to risograph printing, a unique and eco-friendly technique used to produce the New Year cards.

This will be a fun and educational experience that combine storytelling, art, and printing to create your own personalized New Year cards. We can’t wait to see you there!
