Block Printed Tea Towels
Date: September 24
Time: 11 am – 3 pm (with a break for lunch)
Registration Deadline: September 21
Location: GAAC
Students will design, carve and print their own designs and patterns on tea towels. Learn how to use linocut tools, experiment with mark making, transfer a drawing to linoleum, carve the linoleum, roll ink and print by hand. We’ll print patterned tea towels with special fabric inks that are washable after drying. The linocuts you make in class are yours to keep to continue printing at home.
