Join us for a hands-on cyanotype printing workshop led by Stephen Raff, a process-led photographer specialising in historical photographic techniques. You’ll learn how to create one-of-a-kind blue-toned prints using this fascinating 19th-century process.

If you've previously had a wet plate portrait taken by Stephen Raff, you’ll have the opportunity to print it. If not, you can still take part by experimenting with this historic printmaking technique.

Perfect for beginners and creative enthusiasts alike, this workshop offers a chance to explore alternative printmaking and take home your own unique cyanotype artwork.

🚨 Bookings close this Tuesday, 25th February! 🚨

Spaces are extremely limited, so book now to avoid disappointment!

Many men don't seek help or share their mental health struggles with friends and family. This is especially true in rural areas like Devon, where accessing support can be challenging. Stigma and a lack of awareness about available services only compound the issue. At Alright Mate? CIC, we've found a unique approach to breaking the silence. We believe that creative activities can create space for open and honest conversations.

Alright Mate? is unique in that we offer a model where local businesses and artists work together to help improve men’s mental health and reduce the risk of suicide. We provide creative and social events in places where men frequent and go to socialise to increase the likelihood of them seeking help when they need it in a timely way to avoid a mental health crisis.

“Being involved in this makes me feel a bit more like I’m part of a community. I’ve been struggling to break out of that feeling of being cut off from people. It’s made me so much more aware of that need and ways to deal with it.”
