# Event Details - **Event Name**: Printmaking with Gel Plates (A&C Tacoma) - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 14 Nov, 2026 at 01:00 pm – Sat, 14 Nov, 2026 at 03:00 pm (-08:00) - **Event Description**: Come join us for a hands-on printmaking workshop using gel plates!About this EventLearn the basics of creating your own printed papers using gel plates! We will explore masking, stencils, markmaking & painterly print techniques, using water based, slow drying acrylic paints. These methods create unique results; the pressure of printing creates texture and pattern not possible when painting directly on paper. Printmaking is an excellent way to create your own supply of papers for collage, book arts, cards or art that can stand on its own.I will share samples, demonstrate the process, answer questions and work with artists individually during the workshop. Each artist will create samples to take home, which will serve as a valuable reference for future projects. A class summary will also be provided afterwards so that artists can continue their exploration independently. All materials provided however you are welcome to bring any papers you'd like to experiment with. Bring box lid or tray to transport wet art afterwards.Artists of all levels are welcome. Dress for mess! Note: Upstairs classroom, no elevator available. Feel free to contact Barbara De Pirro depirroart@gmail.com with any questions. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/tacoma/printmaking-with-gel-plates-aandc-tacoma/100001999528999062 - **Event Categories**: art, workshops, fine-arts, drawing-painting - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 2 hours - Location: Artist & Craftsman Supply Tacoma - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 55.2, max: 55.2, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Tacoma - **state**: WA - **country**: United States - **location**: Artist & Craftsman Supply Tacoma - **lat**: 47.257941 - **long**: -122.4430373 - **full address**: Artist & Craftsman Supply Tacoma, 616 Saint Helens Avenue, Tacoma, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Printmaking with Gel Plates (A&C Tacoma) - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/b109536df9d63e2110b87005f809f6b8222018f873a67c954b482e0ef6c788d8-rimg-w1200-h675-dc080808-gmir.jpg?v=1788440475 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Printmaking with Gel Plates (A&C Tacoma) being held? - **A:** Printmaking with Gel Plates (A&C Tacoma) takes place on Sat, 14 Nov, 2026 at 01:00 pm to Sat, 14 Nov, 2026 at 03:00 pm at Artist & Craftsman Supply Tacoma, 616 Saint Helens Avenue, Tacoma, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Printmaking with Gel Plates (A&C Tacoma)? - **A:** Printmaking with Gel Plates (A&C Tacoma) is organized by Barbara De Pirro. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
