Do This

Attend a printmaking studio with Simon Harris

11am - 5pm, Friday 9th - Sunday 11th February
Ikon Gallery, 1 Brindley Place, Oozells Square, B1 2HS

Simon Harris hosts a printmaking studio as part of Start The Press!, an exhibition presented by Ikon as they celebrate their 60th anniversary.

The centrepiece of the exhibition is an antique, working flatbed printing press from Wolverhampton School of Art, which will be used in this workshop to produce original prints, filling the gallery walls as artwork is made in real time.

This is a free opportunity with no booking required, so be sure to pop down and get creative.

Cover art for Ella More's single, At What Cost.

Discover Ella More

Ella More had a very exciting 2023; from a string of successful single releases to bagging impressive festival slots and supporting Jorja Smith on her album tour, it’s fair to say she’s entering 2024 at a very promising point in her career. 

We love her latest single At What Cost and if you’re a fan of Cleo Sol, Snoh Aalegra or Mahalia, we’re confident you’ll have it on repeat, too!

Keep up to date with her next moves here and watch the music video for At What Cost below.
