Linocut Valentines! Love it or... not. | February 8th, 2020 | 12-4pm

Whether you love it or hate it, Valentine’s Day is coming. We got you.

Carve and print your own valentines, or gal-entines or pal-entines or hate-entines if that’s more your thing, in this short but sweet half-day linocut workshop. You will learn basic techniques for design, transfer, cutting, and hand printing (although in the interest of time we will be using a press for this project-phew!) while creating a set of unique cards to give to your favorite Valentine’s Day lovers or Valentine’s Day haters. And if it makes a difference, there will definitely be chocolate involved. Bring a date, bring a friend! This is a beginning level workshop. Printmaking experience is welcome but totally unnecessary!
