Linocut Printmaking: Poster Design with Kadi Franson

Date & Time: Saturday, May 10th, 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM

Pticipants: 6

Linocut posters are powerful tools for sharing messages, promoting events, and creating art that can be reproduced in editions. The carving process offers a relaxing, creative experience, allowing for a range of textures and intricate designs.

In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to carve and print a mono-color linoleum block from start to finish. By the end of the day, you’ll have a reusable carved block and at least one final poster print to take home. 

Bring your ideas, along with any images or sketches, to inspire your poster design.

The workshop fee covers all material costs. Beginners welcome!

Please note this studio is in a historic building with stairs.
