About this event
Explore the fascinating stamps and markings hidden inside books at this month’s Storytale Studio session. Inspired by what you discover, you’ll design and create your own unique stamps, then use them to print artwork to take home. Perfect for children and grown-ups alike, this hands-on session celebrates stories, creativity and the joy of making together.
Join us on Saturday 27 June, 10am to 12pm. The session is free to attend, and there’s no need to book – just drop in.
Storytale Studio is a series of free, family-friendly craft workshops running throughout 2026, inspired by the rich collection of books held at Kresen Kernow – the largest collection about Cornwall. From folklore and history to picture books and contemporary stories, these sessions bring Cornwall’s stories to life through creative, hands-on activities.
Alongside the craft, you can explore themed book displays, follow family-friendly trails, and discover new stories together.
The sessions are led by artist and workshop facilitator Sophie Stanley-Butcher (Pop Up Paint Pot) and are designed to be welcoming and accessible for all ages.
Storytale Studio is a collaboration with Redruth Library and is funded by SWRLS.
