- **Event Description**: In this beginner-friendly workshop, students will learn how to print tree rings of many sizes and species.  Sue will demonstrate how to prepare the rings, including using a propane torch and wire brush to raise the wood grain for printing. NOTE: The tree rings will be prepared ahead of time for the class. We will not be prepping the rings; Sue is only demonstrating.

We will talk about dendrochronology, the science of tree-ring dating, and try to determine the age of these rings. Participants will take home several tree ring prints in various colors printed on paper suitable for cards and framing.

Bring a mask and an apron or wear old clothes. The soot from the tree rings is sticky.
