Event Details

Our monthly artmaking workshops continue with block prints- leave having experimented with  several prints, a stamp of your own design, and new working knowledge in brand new art medium.

Block Printmaking participants will learn the process of relief printmaking. Printmaking is an artistic process based on the principle of transferring images from a matrix onto another surface, most often paper or fabric. Traditional printmaking techniques include woodcut, etching, engraving, and lithography, while modern artists have expanded available techniques to include screenprinting. Students will have the opportunity to create multiple prints of different colors and participate in aspects of “social practice” in which artworks serve to create community spaces through sharing and trading.

 

Suggested for ages 12 and older. Register in advance to save your spot!
