Be inspired by archive posters as well as your own experiences as you write, design, colour and type your own narrative poster at a workshop in Truro on July 8.

Following the success of earlier workshops, the Archives and Cornish Studies Service is holding another workshop in their popular ‘ArTchive’ series. ‘Archival Advertisements’ is led by artist and sign-painter A Goodwin, and takes place at Cornwall Record Office in Truro.

 Chloe Phillips of CRO said: ’These ArTchive workshops are always a great opportunity to be inspired by our fantastic archive collections. Participants will tour our strongrooms, explore original posters and then work with A Goodwin to produce their own version.’ 

Spaces for the workshop are very limited, so pre-booking is essential. The workshop, which runs from 10am – 4.30pm, costs £10 which includes all materials, but not refreshments. To book, or for more information, contact Cornwall Record Office on 01872 323 127.
