Printmaking has a long history as a tool for raising awareness about social issues and inspiring others to action. During this 2.5-hour workshop session, participants will be encouraged to experiment with simple printmaking techniques to create a print that raises awareness and expresses a personal statement about what they care about most.

But together, through art, I believe that we can all spark a conversation, and we can use our creativity to inspire real change."
