[This is a Virtual Ruby* event, taking place over Zoom. Nonmembers are welcome to join; please donate if you are able!]

Bored with plain t-shirts, white kitchen towels, and blank pillows? Itching to make your own printed cards, artwork, or wrapping paper? Learn the basics of block printing in this fun-filled workshop!

Everyone will learn how to carve a rubber block/stamp with their own design, apply ink, and print! In this class, we will focus on printing on fabric, but the techniques learned can translate to many other materials, like paper, clothing, and wood. Once you learn, you won't want to stop! The possibilities are endless and make great gifts!

Choose from two booking options:

1. Supply your own materials! For this workshop, you will need a lino cutter, a rubber block printing block, and an ink pad

2. Purchase a block printing kit -- $25 (+ shipping; or pick up from Jenny Lemons in the Mission, not far from The Ruby) -- that includes:

• Wooden Lino Handle

• #2 & #4 Lino Cutters

• 4" x 6" Speedy-Carve Block

• Tracing paper

• Instructional booklet

• permanent waterproof ink pad

• set of 3 blank greeting cards

• blank tote bag

***Please sign up by 7/20 if purchasing a kit to allow time for shipping. ***
