Join us for a fun evening learning the art of block printing with local artist, Rachel Lambes. Rachel will lead us through the entire printmaking process including preparing, carving, and printing your own custom design. We will be carving linoleum blocks to print personalized tea towels, zipper pouches, or reusable shopping totes.

All required materials are included in the class tuition. Additional materials will be available to purchase during the workshop if you want to create multiple projects, but are completely optional. Feel free to bring your own materials (shirts, towels, totes, etc.) to print on if you wish. No experience is necessary to participate in this workshop.

Rachel Lambes, the artist behind Thistlefield LLC, is a native of Northwest Ohio, currently residing near Wauseon with her family. She holds a Master’s of Education and works as a professional artist and paralegal. Rachel serves on the gallery committee for the Adrian Center for the Arts.

First Thursday Open Print Studio with Kadi Franson

Do you have a printmaking idea you’ve been wanting to try, or an existing project you're waiting to finish? Come to the studio to enjoy relaxed, open creative time alongside other local printmakers.

Saturday November 7th and Sunday November 8th 

1:00pm til 5:30pm 

Students will use power tools, hand tools, nails, screwdrivers, and any tool they choose to make marks on the surface of the plywood printing plate. We will start out by printing a solid color, then gradually reduce the surface of our plate with our mark-making techniques and print contrasting colors with each reduction layer.

Students will come away with a small edition of prints from this class. Abstract imagery works best for this process, especially for students' first time experimenting with it. Students just need to bring a sense of adventure.
