Block Printing Class

in ,

This class has been cancelled due to the MN “Stay At Home” order during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Students of any skill level will learn to create a design, transfer the design to a specialized silicone block which is made especially for printing, cut the design into the block and print using the block. They will be able to make 5 cards to take home and any number of “art prints” they wish to make using various papers supplied by the instructor. Students may keep the created block and prints as well as a really cool skill they can use for years! Instructor will provide all materials needed for each student to complete the project.

This class is easy and fun, even if you’re not the “creative type”! Give it a try!
