Onsite | Free

Give your clothes a creative refresh in this block printing workshop led by artist Michael Emerick. Over two evening sessions, you'll learn the block printing process—from carving to printing—using a selection of provided patterns to get you started.

The first night will focus on choosing a pattern and carving your block. On the second night, you'll print your finished design onto a piece of clothing or fabric you bring—think jeans, shirts, bandanas, jackets, or anything you'd like to experiment with. We'll also have sample fabric available for practice.

All tools and materials will be provided. No prior experience necessary!
