Art Class: Lino Print

These art classes form part of Goole 200 by taking inspiration from the town’s past. While the techniques are chosen because they’re popular and accessible, each session is themed around a different aspect of Goole’s history, heritage or identity. This gives participants a simple, enjoyable way to connect with the town’s story—exploring local influences through hands-on activity. Whether inspired by industry, waterways or everyday life, each class offers a chance to reflect on Goole’s past while creating something of your own.
