Print Like Baumann Block-Printing Activity

Make a block print inspired by artist Gustave Baumann's prints during our free Baumannia Community Day on Sun., Sept. 28, 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. at the New Mexico History Museum in Santa Fe.

Use reproduction blocks to create your own Baumann-esque progressive print. Discover the changes that result when colors are layered in different orders. Perfect for the “non-artistic” and for people of all ages. Children younger than 10 years old must be accompanied by an adult. Free, all materials supplied.
