About this event

This fun and engaging one-night class will show you how to create bold linocut block printing art.

Block printing is a traditional printmaking technique where designs are carved onto a flat block of material, such as linoleum or wood, and then inked and stamped onto paper or fabric. In our block printing class, students will learn the basics of block printing, including how to design and carve their own blocks, mix inks, and make multiple prints.



Learn a New Artform

You will also explore the versatility of this medium, experimenting with different techniques to create unique, hand-made prints. The class is perfect for those interested in learning a new printmaking method or for those looking to develop their creative skills in a fun and hands-on way.



Learn Linocut Art Step by Step

You'll enjoy this class because it provides a hands-on and creative learning experience. Block printing is a fun and accessible way to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind prints, and the process of designing, carving, and printing is both challenging and rewarding.
