The Print Mill

The Print Mill is an exciting new space on Mill Street – due to open in December 2015.

The space is destined to be an exciting and engaging print space on the high street providing space to try new ideas or technologies or to build upon their existing skills in a welcoming and creative space.

There will be a programme that includes drop in and ticketed creative workshops using simple silk screen printing methods and monthly guest workshop leaders.

Print Mill is looking for local artists and crafts people to get in touch with examples of their work to be included in the opening exhibition over the Christmas period.

If you are already engaged in a creative activity email: Diana@thehamiltonproject.co.uk by Friday December 4th with:
Images of your work
An idea of potential stock available (it can be one off’s…)
Any links to your website
An idea of price ranges

Print Mill will charge 20% commission on all sales – but the space is being operated not for profit – so all income will be going back into the running and development of The Print Mill.

Make it Macclesfield, who are responsible for this space, see this project as a clear step in the implementation of the heritage and culture strategy, illustrating how arts and culture can lead the regeneration of a town.

The aims and objectives of the project:
Creating a buzz – inspire creative use of empty units other than retail.
Encourage footfall
Improve general perception.
Create an identity for the area
Provide a creative and collaborative space that supports arts development and promotes participation.
Provide a programme of activities that nurtures talent and promotes participation.
