Get your wardrobe fall-ready with our beginner-friendly block printing workshop!
Bring a garment of your choice and learn how to spruce it up with reusable printing blocks. We’ll cover basic block printing tools, how to transfer designs onto lino blocks, best practices for carving blocks, and how to apply ink.
For this workshop, clothing like denim jackets or jeans, cotton or linen button-downs, canvas pieces, and t-shirts work best. Feel free to bring up to 3 pieces of clothing.
We’ll also have blank fabric swatches, which you can print and hand stitch (or pin) to clothing, just like a patch. This is a great option if you want to upcycle clothing without directly printing on it.
You’ll leave with upcycled clothing, reusable printing blocks, and the skills to keep customizing your clothing! All materials provided and no experience necessary.
Format: 3-hour, one-time workshop, Adults & 15+. All. matterials included (except your garment to print on)
