Learn the art and craft of block printing with returning artist Kayla Ann! In this 2.5-hour class, we'll explore the fundamental techniques of carving, inking, and printing. Drawing inspiration from our special exhibition, Søren Solkær: Sort Sol, Kayla will guide students through the process of carving a bird-like stamp and printing the design on a tea towel. The skills learned in class are applicable to future block printing projects—walk away with all the tools you'll need to keep printing!

Students will need to purchase their own block printing kit here. Tea towels will be provided in class.
