Printfest 2026
Printfest returns to Ulverston 30th April – 3rd May
Printfest is back showcasing a diverse range of talent. This year’s Printmaker of the Year, Anne Desmet, will be featured alongside an exciting collection of over 40 emerging and established artists from across the UK and beyond.
The festival offers an exciting opportunity to see and purchase original prints, highlighting a variety of techniques and high-quality work. Visitors can meet the artists, explore their creative processes, and gain insight into the world of printmaking.
Printfest has also worked with local schools providing workshops and materials to help pupils experience printmaking for themselves. A selection of the students’ work will be on display in The Coro over the Printfest weekend.
