It is located at the Pennine edge at the North West fringe of the Manchester conurbation. The studio is a four storey building with well equipped workshop facilities and spacious accommodation. It offers project opportunities and teaching resources catering for all levels of experience – regular classes and specialist short courses.

We’re delighted to announce that we have been awarded funding from Pennine Townships to support a new series of creative workshops at Ebor, led by Ebor member Lindsey from Violet Flamingo Bespoke

Through this funding, Lindsey will be delivering Upcycling and Sewing workshops, providing opportunities to learn new skills, get creative, and give pre-loved items a new lease of life.

We’re currently putting the final logistics in place and will be sharing more details very soon, including how you can get involved.

Introduction to Collograph with Card & Carborundum

Join us for a 2-day beginner-friendly workshop where you’ll create multiple plates and experiment with textures, shapes, and compositions. 🎨

At Ebor Studio, we’ll print the intaglio way using an etching press — but you’ll also discover how collographs can be printed in relief, opening up endless creative possibilities.

🌟 No experience needed — work abstractly, from your own source material, or use what’s provided.
📅 Please note: the workshop runs across two non-consecutive days (make sure to book both!).

Ready to explore printmaking in a supportive, hands-on environment?
