Linoleum Printmaking - Cards and Broadsides
About the Event
Discover the art of linocut printing in this hands-on workshop! Learn how to carve your own design into a linoleum block and explore techniques for creating a variety of textures and effects. Once your design is complete, you’ll use our portable printing press to print your block, creating a small edition of prints or unique greeting cards.
You’ll leave with several prints of your own design, along with your carved linoleum block to use again in future projects. All materials and printing equipment will be provided, and all experience levels are welcome—from beginners to seasoned creatives.
