Intro to Printmaking - May Flower Cards

Saturday, May 10th 10 am - 2:30 pm

$95

Instructor: Xavier Byrdlee  

In-Studio Class

Learn the basics of linocut printmaking as you carve and print your own May Flowers Card design! 

Choose from one of our templates or bring your own artwork to transfer to your linoleum block, carving the relief by hand and printing with one color ink of your choice. Students will leave with up to 10 May Flower themed cards (4.25" x 5.5") and a linocut that can be reprinted by hand or with our etching presses. 

Completing this class will certify you in using our printmaking hand tools for Open Studio Rentals.

Supplies needed by participants: All will be provided, but students are welcome to bring their own designs, or their own aprons!

NOTE: 

We set our pricing to pay our instructors a fair wage and cover materials, but one of FBAC’s goals is to give access to the experience of all things bookbinding and printing to anyone who is interested. If you or someone you know would like to participate in a class but do not have the funding please reach out to contact@frederickbookarts.org and we will do what we can so no one has to miss out on the experiences we offer.
