Description: Join us for an evening of block printing and leave with a tote bag or small pouch printed with your own design!
You’ll learn the basics of block printing, starting how to transfer your design to a linocut block. We’ll then learn how to use carving tools to carve your unique design into a block for hand-printing.
We’ll have small pouches, perfect for make up or pencils, and totes available for printing. You may also bring your own article of clothing if you’d prefer (100% cotton, please!).
Feel free to bring your favorite beverage to enjoy while crafting. We have glasses available, no need to bring disposables.
When: Saturday, 6-8pm
Skills taught: You will learn how to design and carve a printing block, how to ink a block and print onto a cotton fabric medium, and how to set the print.
Skills needed: This is a great workshop for beginners! All you need is hand eye coordination and basic drawing abilities. If you aren’t confident in your drawing abilities, don’t worry, we have tracing paper!
Supplies used: All supplies will be provided by CraftNation and will include 100% cotton fabric, carving tools and medium, and printmaking ink.
What you’ll leave with: Each student will leave with either a small pouch or tote printed with your own design!
Meet your teacher: Gabriel is a block print artist. They are inspired by resistance movements, mental health struggles, folklore, and flora and fauna. Check out their work at wildcraftprintshop.
All workshops at CraftNation are offered at a sliding scale. For guidance on which price you should pay, please see our Sliding Scalepage.
