Prints & Pints! at Common Roots Albany Outpost

Join Upstate Art & Crafts and Common Roots Albany Outpost on Friday, March 28th, from 6:00 - 8:00pm

Get ready to unleash your creativity and learn the art of printmaking from Matt and Kyra Donato, while enjoying a deliciously crafted beer (or two). In this 2 hour guided class, you will learn how to transfer an image to your rubber block, use the carving tools provided, test out your skills on a small monogram stamp, then finish the class with your final piece - a custom stamp portrait of your pet!

Okay, we know what you're thinking - 'but I can't draw!!'

Don't worry, we've got you covered!

After check out, email [email protected] and send us a high res picture of your desired pet - we will map out your final portrait in advance of class so all you have to do is carve and enjoy your beer!

Class includes:

• 2 hour guided lesson for beginner printmaking
• 2" rubber block for monogram stamp
• 4"x6" rubber block for final pet portrait (prepped in advance with portrait already mapped out for you)
• All necessary carving and printing supplies
• Brewery and bar will be open, beers are available for purchase

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced print maker, this event is perfect for everyone!

At Upstate Art & Crafts, we believe art and a good craft beer are best enjoyed together. We love sharing and fostering creativity with others, while frequenting our local brewing establishments. We hope our classes will ease stress, spark an idea, or inspire an attendee to try something new!

This class is geared toward adults, children under the age of 16 are not permitted. After ticket purchase, please send clear, high res picture of your pet to [email protected]. Reach out with any additional questions!
