Art audiences in Aberdeen are being invited to celebrate creativity and collaboration during a hands-on print making exhibition being held in the city next week.
The three-day event, Print @ The Print Room 2025, will see art students from International School Aberdeen (ISA) team up with Peacock, a workshop for art and Aberdeen’s printmaking studio.
The free exhibition, which runs from Thursday, February 13th to Saturday, February 15th, will also showcase over 300 unique print works created by ISA art students aged 3 to 18 (preschool to Grade 12).
The works of the ISA students are the result of months of creative exploration as the young artists have honed their printmaking skills under the guidance of dedicated art teachers and local printmaking professionals.
Nicolina Rea, ISA Art Teacher and Print @ The Print Room co-ordinator, said, “This exhibition is a testament to the creativity and talent of our students at ISA. This is an amazing opportunity for every student in the school to take part in an exciting art experience and see their work exhibited in an art gallery space.”
