Saturday, June 20, from 10 A.M. to 1:00 P.M.
Carve your own design and print it by hand in this satisfying, beginner-friendly workshop! Using Speedy Carve, a soft and flexible rubber block that's easy to work with, you'll transfer a design of your choice onto the block, carve away the negative space with lino cutters, and use a brayer and ink to pull your prints.The forgiving, eraser-like texture of Speedy Carve makes detailed carving accessible even if you've never tried it before — and the results are bold, beautiful, and uniquely yours. You'll leave with several prints, a greeting card or two, and your very own hand-carved block to keep printing with at home.
