Explore the beauty of plants through the spontaneous and expressive process of gelli plate printmaking. Use leaves, flowers, grasses, and other botanical materials to create layered monoprints that capture the textures, silhouettes, and rhythms of the natural world.

As we work, we’ll explore how different plant structures—veins, stems, seed heads, and petals—translate into striking graphic impressions.

The day will include demonstrations, guided experimentation, and plenty of time to create a collection of unique botanical prints. These prints can stand alone as artworks or be used later for collage, cards, journals, and mixed-media projects.

Sunday, June 21, 2026 | 1 - 4P | One-day workshop | $100

Celebrate Father’s Day, the start of summer, and outdoor adventures with block printing! Whether your passion is camping, scaling mountains, or enjoying the view from your back porch, we can create art to celebrate the people, places, and activities that are important to you.

We'll learn basic block print design, carving and printing techniques, and also experiment with adding color after the blocks have been printed. This is a perfect class for beginners or as a refresher if you have printed before. You'll come away with a series of prints suitable for framing or gifting as cards, a block to re-use, and a hand out of instructions, tips and resources for continuing to create at home.

Children 10+ welcome. Please register individually.

Supplies: All materials are included with registration.
