About

Want to try something new? In this hands-on workshop, you’ll carve a block, make multiple prints to keep, and have a block for future projects. Experiment with the timeless art of block printing using a vintage tabletop press, carve your own design into a linoleum block, and print a stack of your very own artwork to take home.

Details

  • Skill level: All. No experience needed. 
  • Designed for ages 8 and up. 
  • Bring a simple 5-inch by 7-inch drawing you'd like to carve onto a linoleum block. We'll be printing in black ink.
  • Bring a water bottle and a snack. Wear comfy clothes you don’t mind getting a little inky.

Registering Youth

  • Parent/guardian registering a child for the first time: When you register, select "Others Only" in the "Who Are You Registering?" section. On the next page, select "Add New Registrant." Create an account for your child.
    • The next time you register your child, use "Search Registrants" to select them.
  • Make sure to fill out your youth's emergency contact information and other details when creating their account.
