Printmaking is an artistic process based on the principle of transferring images from a matrix onto another surface, most often paper or fabric. Traditional printmaking techniques include woodcut, etching, engraving, and lithography, while modern artists have expanded available techniques to include screenprinting. Participants will have the opportunity to create multiple prints of different colors and participate in aspects of “social practice,” in which artworks serve to create community spaces through sharing and trading. We kindly ask that adults actively participate in this art activity alongside any child under the age of 11. Refunds are not available for no-shows, but a credit will be provided for a future class at Studio HQ if you cancel at least 24 hours before the class.
