Coconino Community College - Flagstaff

Join us for a hands-on printmaking class where you'll learn the art of linoleum block relief printing! In this beginner-friendly workshop you'll learn how to design, carve, transfer your image onto linoleum, tear paper, and print your own custom artwork using linoleum blocks, carving tools, and water soluble ink. You'll also learn how to sign your prints following traditional printmaking practices. Whether you’re interested in making prints for framing, cards, or even future stamp designs, this class offers a fun and creative introduction to a timeless printmaking method. You'll leave with finished prints, your hand-carved block for future use, and the skills to keep creating on your own.
