Linoleum Block Printing

Join us at the Red Brick Center for the Arts for fun and social art-making evenings. Whether you have art experience or not, come create during our evening sessions and enjoy a complimentary glass of wine or beer. Participants must be 21 years of age or older.

Linoleum block printing, also known as lino printing or linocut, is a versatile printmaking technique that involves:

• Carving images and designs into linoleum blocks.

• Inking the carved blocks.

• Pressing them onto paper to achieve a printed image.

• No two images turn out the same, the only limit is your creativity!

  Linocut, also known as lino print, lino printing or linoleum art, is a printmaking technique, in which a sheet of linoleum (sometimes mounted on a wooden block) is used for a relief surface. A design is cut into the linoleum surface with a sharp knife, V-shaped chisel or gouge, with the raised (uncarved) areas representing a reversal (mirror image) of the parts to show the areas to be printed.

All supplies are included.

$25 per session, per person
