We have built a tailor-made programme of activities for the 2025 Rosy Ind Award recipient, Menna Jones, which will take place during 2025.
As part of the Bursary package, Menna receives annual Full Membership, a materials budget, and an induction to the Studio which allows her to work independently during Open Access hours. She has the opportunity to take part in a number of workshops and mentoring sessions with experienced printmakers and will be supported and encouraged to participate in any other activities, projects and events that take place in the Studio during her bursary period.
You can read more about Menna on her Profile.

Transparent Stacked 3-colour Monotype Workshop | Lead Artist: Vinita Voogd | 6 June 2025
Working with visiting artist Vinita Voogd, this “reductive transparent stacked” monotype technique workshops offers an unusual and interesting way of producing an extraordinary range of colour, texture and mark making.
I thoroughly enjoyed this session with Vinita, even though thinking in three colours proved to be quite challenging. Vinita’s guidance helped me push through my difficulties and gain a deeper understanding of colour use in Monotypes & Monoprints. It was a very rewarding experience. I highly recommend her sessions.

Relief Print with Chine Collé – Mini Prints Workshop | Lead Artist: Vinita Voogd | 4 June 2025
Working with visiting artist Vinita Voogd, a collagraph workshop using chine collé to create delicate, colourful small-scale prints.
Vinita was a wonderful teacher, making the experience both engaging and informative. Using polystyrene plates enabled multiple detailed prints, making the process efficient. Adding chine collé enhanced texture and colour, enriching the prints. It was a great hands-on printmaking experience. Menna
