Block Printing Workshop with Rustic Passport Studio!

Join Bull City Fair Trade for a night of education, creativity, and food! In this 2 hour evening workshop, we'll explore the history of hand block printing, one of the most popular art forms in the world. Then, fashion designer Nikki Chhatbar of Rustic Passport Studio will guide you through carving and printing with your own linoleum block! Your ticket includes everything you need to make your own bookmarks/greeting cards, or you can purchase cotton tea towels/handkerchiefs/scarves at the workshop for extra printing fun. Your ticket also includes light refreshments (samosas!) to fuel your fashion-making. No experience is required for this workshop; just bring your creativity!
