Relief Printmaking: Design & Print Your Own Tote Bag

Over the course of three hours, you'll learn the fundamentals of linocut printmaking as you design, carve, and hand-print your own original artwork onto a cotton tote bag. Guided through each stage of the creative process, you'll explore how to transfer your design, safely carve a linoleum block, ink your carving, and create beautiful hand-printed impressions.

Whether you're completely new to printmaking or looking to expand your creative practice, this workshop offers a welcoming and supportive environment for all experience levels.

At the end of the workshop, you'll leave with:

• A hand-printed cotton tote bag
• Your carved linoleum block to continue printing at home
• New printmaking skills and techniques you can build on

What to bring:

• Comfortable clothing (or an apron)
• Clothing you're comfortable getting a little inky
• Water and snacks
• A notebook for notes (optional)
• Sketches, photographs, or inspiration images for your design
• Extra paper or fabric if you'd like to experiment with additional prints
