What is Block Printing?
Block printing involves carving designs into a block (rubber or linoleum), inking it, and pressing it onto paper or fabric. In this workshop, beginners will use easy-carving blocks to create their own designs, learning printmaking while having fun!

What is Gelli Printing?
Gelli printing is a playful technique using a gel plate to transfer images onto paper or fabric. Layer paint and use stencils or stamps for unique prints. It's a simple, no-press method that fosters creativity, perfect for all skill levels.
