Best gift

Fantastic Japanese woodblock printing workshop with Alex Booker. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop. Alex was super patient showing us the techniques and offering lots of inspiration from his own work and library. I cannot recommend him highly enough. The workshop site isn’t the most central place in London to get to but his studio is light and airy and Alex is the perfect teacher. Would highly recommend. We got to bring our woodblocks and our prints home with us. Great fun and perfect for two or a group.

Fabulous Fun Four-and-a-Half Hours

Alex is welcoming, relaxed, very knowledgeable and a good teacher (he also makes a very tasty hummus). There were 5 of us in the group and the time raced past. We all left feeling happy, fulfilled and like we’d learned a new skill.
