Experiment, play, and learn simple hands-on printmaking methods. Each week we will use common materials; foam sheets, masking & clear packing tape, soft cut Lino sheets, cyanotype, and found objects.
The current MOCA exhibition will serve to inspire our exploration. We’ll apply our ideas using simple art making tools such as acetate, brushes, inks, brayers, barrens, cardboard, solar papers, and more as our hand-printmaking experience opens new doors for creativity and self-expression. No previous art experience required.
This six-week class will meet on Sundays: March 10, 17, 24, April 7, 14, and 21 (Skip March 31). Each session is 2.5 hours. This class has a graduation showcase on Tuesday, April 30, where participants will share their work with friends, family, and the community.
