Join us for a fun evening learning the art of block printing with local artist, Rachel Lambes. Rachel will lead us through the entire printmaking process including preparing, carving, and printing your own custom design. We will be carving linoleum blocks to print personalized tea towels, zipper pouches, or reusable shopping totes.
All required materials are included in the class tuition. Additional materials will be available to purchase during the workshop if you want to create multiple projects, but are completely optional. Feel free to bring your own materials (shirts, towels, totes, etc.) to print on if you wish. No experience is necessary to participate in this workshop.
Rachel Lambes, the artist behind Thistlefield LLC, is a native of Northwest Ohio, currently residing near Wauseon with her family. She holds a Master’s of Education and works as a professional artist and paralegal. Rachel serves on the gallery committee for the Adrian Center for the Arts.
Ages 12+
Please note the print studio is in a historic building with stairs.

with Alisa Clark
Saturday October 3rd * 1:00pm to 4:00pm
This hands-on, three-hour workshop invites participants to explore art-making through intuition rather than instruction. Guided by mixed-media artist Alisa E. Clark, you’ll experiment with materials, marks, and layers while learning to trust process, play, and personal response.
No prior art experience is required—this workshop is about letting go of expectations, listening closely, and discovering what emerges when you create from the inside out. Participants may or may not leave with a finished piece—and that’s completely okay. This workshop emphasizes experience over outcome, offering starting points, new ways of working, and moments of discovery. The true takeaway is a deeper connection to your creative voice, along with insights and approaches you can continue exploring long after the workshop ends.
*Students should bring a journal or sketchbook, basic paintbrushes, and texture/mark-making materials (string, sandpaper shapes, leaves, fabric scrapes, etc).

TINY LINO PRINT SERIES - SEED PACKETS with Kadi Franson
Sunday, September 27th * 1:00pm - 4:00pm * Ages: 15+
Many plants are going to seed—but where to put them all? In hand-printed packets, of course! In this workshop, we will make small block prints to stamp onto seed packets; a handmade touch for labeling seeds for next year’s planting cycle, giving as gifts, or contributing to a free little seed library. This will be a fun, enjoyable process that will provide a low-stakes introduction to linocut printmaking.
Everyone will leave with their own set of stamped packets and a custom block print to continue using at home. Feel free to bring a few photo references or drawings of the plant you will be depicting to use in your designs.
The workshop fee covers all material costs. Beginners welcome!
