Workshop Date & Time: Saturday, November 15, 10:30am to 1pm

Workshop Maximum Size: 8 students (age 18+)

Workshop Fee: $95 

Learn to carve your own 4” x 6” block and hand print greeting cards with your creation! We will discuss carving techniques and planning, use a lino cutter to carve our designs into rubber blocks, and use an ink pad to print our designs. You’ll be able to plan your own artwork or use the winter-themed artwork choices provided. With our small workshop size of 8 students maximum, there will be plenty of time to talk with Naomi one on one about your art, techniques, and any questions you may have. You’ll end the class with a carved block and a batch of greeting cards to send to your friends and family!

The workshop fee includes $35 worth of materials that you will use during our workshop and take home with you so you can continue your block printing journey: 

-a Speedball Speedy Carve Kit 

-an archival ink pad

-and greeting cards and envelopes.
