Step into the rich tradition of printmaking in this welcoming four-week linocut course designed for beginners. Printmaking has been used for centuries as a way to share ideas, tell stories, and make art accessible, from early hand-carved prints to modern independent artists. In a fast, digital world, learning this hands-on process is not only creatively rewarding but also helps preserve an important artistic practice rooted in craftsmanship and care.
 
In this class, you’ll be guided step by step through carving, inking, and printing your own original designs. You’ll learn how to safely use tools, build strong black-and-white compositions, and explore texture and contrast to bring your ideas to life. Each week builds your skills and confidence, moving from simple marks to a finished series of prints.
 
This course emphasizes creativity over perfection, mistakes are part of the process, and every print carries its own unique character. By the end, you’ll leave with a small collection of hand-printed work and a deeper appreciation for the history and future of printmaking.
 
No experience needed, just curiosity and a willingness to get your hands a little inky.
