Join us to learn a printmaking technique favoured by Rembrandt and local artist William Strang. This art used acid, beeswax and a sharp point to create an image. We will work with less toxic and harmful materials than in the past. We will work on perspex to create an image to print. We will use a small printing press to produce an etching by the end of the session. Places are limited for this class. Suitable for age 12+ Tutor Maeve Dixon is West Dunbartonshire Council's Arts Development Officer. She studied Printmaking at Glasgow School of Art and still continues to create prints at home. She passes on her passion for print to communities so that they are able to create their own masterpieces!

The ancient Alexandria Library was built in the early Ptolemy Dynasty in the third century BC. It was the largest library in the world at that time. It collected more than 500,000 volumes. It included literature and materials in literature, science and technology, art, philosophy and other fields, attracting famous scientists, philosophers and other places. Thinkers and artists came to visit, such as Archimedes and Euclid, to conduct research, lecture, write books and engage in other academic exchanges. Alexandria became the world&#39;s cultural and scientific center at the time. The Ptolemy dynasty was also distinguished by its talents, producing a group of astronomers, geographers, mathematicians, medical scientists and linguists who made outstanding contributions to the world&#39;s scientific and technological culture. The new library is located on the seafront avenue of Alexandria on the southern shore of the Mediterranean, next to the large statue of the &quot;Bride of the Mediterranean&quot;, which costs $110 million, is novel and unique and eye-catching. The new library covers a comprehensive range of subjects, including the main library, youth library, blind library, planetarium, manuscripts display hall, ancient books museum, cultural relics museum, science and history museum, taking into account the needs of children, blind people and visually impaired people; The books are all-inclusive and everything. For Alexandria and visitors from all over the world, the Library of Alexandria is a wonderful place.

The remains of the historical buildings of the Hellenistic period in Egypt, where only the small Sphinx remains in the rest. The large platform of the foundation is still preserved, and it is even more lonely. This is the remains of the Alexandria landmark.

Montazah Palace Gardens

Montazza Palace, also known as the &quot;Egyptian Summer Palace&quot;, &quot;Montazza Palace Garden&quot;, &quot;Montazza Garden&quot;, &quot;Farouk Palace&quot;, etc., is the palace of the last king of Egypt Farouk, it is located in a vast scenic area at the eastern end of Alexandria. Overlooking the secluded beach, surrounded by date palm trees and gardens, the palace blends Florence and Turkish style and is now the State Guesthouse of Egypt. Montaza Palace was a summer retreat for the royal family until 1952. Now the seaside is open to tourists and anglers, and the palace is not open to the public. Montaza Palace Park is the best place for greening in Alexandria, with a large area. This is a good place for Egyptian families to go out for a picnic, and it is also a romantic choice for couples to fall in love together.
