Join us in making the holidays a little more eco-friendly this year by repurposing paper and adding your own hand-carved prints to create your own wrapping paper! Participants will learn how to carve small stamps with linoleum and styrofoam. You’ll then use ink to stamp your own wrapping paper or make some decorative prints for holiday gifts. No prior printmaking experience is necessary, and all printmaking materials will be provided. Participants are encouraged to bring their own paper materials (paper grocery bags, newspaper, used tissue paper, etc.), but there will be kraft paper available as well. If you would like, you can also bring other materials to print on, such as fabric scraps, tote bags, clothing, etc.

Non-Members: $30
