Hands-On (1-3pm)

  • create up to 35 of your own prints, from your artwork!!
  • use the machine yourself with support and guidance!

Masks are required during the workshop.

The workshop is offered as pay-what-you-can. Suggested donation is $30 for the hands-on workshop and classroom. (For classroom only, suggested donation is $10-15.)

NOTAFLOF – if you can’t afford to pay, you can attend for free.

Paying $30 or more helps fund the workshop and print shop to continue, and covers the cost of materials for you to receive up to 35 of your own prints.

We created this print room because we could not afford the price of commercial printing. The project runs on a shoestring budget. If you can afford to pay more, please do. If you don’t have the money, please don’t be shy about showing up empty handed.
