Etching

Etching is a process in which the drawn line is incised using a corrosive into which a metal plate has been submerged. After the process is complete, the etched line holds ink, which is then printed on paper. We use ferric chloride, a corrosive salt, to etch into copper plates.

Saturday mornings from 1-12am & 12-2pm

Back to back classes on Saturdays allow for a longer stretch of time for those who would like. Choose three classes and mix and match as you choose!

Block Printing

Block printing is a technique that uses a carved material such as linoleum or wood to transfer ink onto fabric or paper. The block serves as a stamp, with the final product resulting in a reverse image of the carving. Students who attend multiple classes will learn three main block printing techniques; single block, reduction, and multiple block.

Wednesday evenings from 6-8pm and Friday mornings from 10-12am

Classes are purchased in packs of 3. Chose your dates to register

Guided Mixed Media Open Studio

This 3 hour class is ideal for students who have taken at least 3 classes at the studio, and feel confident using the press on their own and know studio clean up procedures. Instruction is always on hand for those who want to learn new techniques, while the longer class allows for time to work independently.

Thursday afternoons from 4-7pm and Fridays from 12:30-3:30pm

​Sign up is on a class to class basis. Take as many or as few as you like!
