 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A group of us did the linocut workshop with Anna and couldn't recommend it more. She was super helpful, welcoming and lovely, and Frankenstein Press is a really great space! All round a really fun evening spent hanging out and getting creative. We'll be back for sure!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had my 30th birthday party at the Frankenstein press and I cannot recommend it highly enough! The fact that we all came away with a print we loved, despite all being new to lino printing, is a testament to Anna's brilliant teaching. I especially loved getting to use the old fashioned press. The store has such a welcoming and friendly atmosphere and there is a kitchen and courtyard at the back to hang out in afterwards. I will definitely be coming back!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did the Intro to print making course here and LOVED it. I am not a naturally creative person but Anna was so encouraging and I thoroughly enjoyed myself - I even put the print I made up in my Kitchen. Great thing to do with friends or even solo. Brilliant!
