Blockprinting Botanicals

Event: Blockprinting Botanicals

Artist Instructor: jen berger

Date & Time: Sunday, June 27 11AM-3PM

Cost: $85

Join us for an introduction to block printing with linoleum.  Using images from the garden, we will draw onto the linoleum and learn to carve and print. You'll make a series of prints with your new image and take home your linoleum block to continue your printing adventure! 

This is the fifth year that jen has offered this workshop at Horsford Garden & Nursery. The workshop is in a barn surrounded by the beauty of the gardens.

If time allows, we will also print from natural materials.

All materials provided. Bring a 4"x6" image to work with or create your own on site.
