We're on a roll...

In 2017, we gave up life on the road to settle down and set up the Tower Street Print Project in Ipswich. Since then, we have developed and delivered printmaking courses for the Department of Work and Pensions to help people get back to work, pioneered Printmaking on Prescription with the NHS to help people with Long Covid symptoms feel better and worked with local schools, colleges and the university of Suffolk, to give young people opportunities to get involved with printmaking and take up careers in the arts.

​In 2021, when galleries were allowed to open after covid restrictions, we set up Ipswich PrintWeek, an annual festival of printmaking which included a premier exhibition of printmaking in the Whistler Gallery, Ipswich. In the same year, we created Our Place in Time,  a three-year arts, heritage and media project for 200 young people, who learned printmaking with us so that they could make a series of three, large public artworks for their town. These consisted of twelve foot long wallhangings, which we printed during Ipswich PrintWeek   with a road roller. The wallhangings were on public display during 2021 - 2024 and were seen by over 100,000 people. Each one has now been donated to the permanent collection at The Hold, Suffolks’ Public Records office, for the benefit of future generations.
