Gel Printing and Book Binding
Mirfield Community Centre, Water Royd Lane, Mirfield, WF14 9SG

Life skills and interests
Join us for this fantastic three-week course and discover the basic techniques of gel printing and book binding.
Alongside our friendly Peer Worker, James and Recovery College Volunteer, Wendy, we will experiment with layered and mono printing methods using a gel plate to create our own unique prints. Once we have a variety of prints, they will be used to make a small book using the Japanese book binding method.
You can use this as a notebook, for writing positive affirmations, or as inspiration for doodles! You can also just keep it as a “coffee table” style book that you flick through to remind you of your achievements.
No previous experience is necessary, and all materials are provided.
Due to demand and to ensure we are being fair to everyone, priority will be given to learners who have not previously undertaken a Recovery College Gel Printing course.
