Sunday May 17, 1-3 pm: Relief Printmaking on painted paper with Linda Leon!
This is a two-hour, hands-on, workshop.
Participants will paint printmaking paper with watercolours. While the paper is drying, they will
cut a simple image onto a relief printing plate that they will then print onto their now colourful
paper. Participants will leave with at least one completed beautiful print. And take away their
original plate so that they can make their own prints later. Maximum of 6 participants per class.
Adults and children 12 years and older.
Cost per participant: $95 + 15 Materials = $110 + GST
Monday May 25, 5-7 pm: Intro to hand building in commercial and wild Yukon clay with Nicole Bauberger
We will explore basic hand building techniques including pinch pots, slab building, scoring with slip,
and coil building. We will do this using two different kinds of clay so as to observe the differences
between them – M340, the whitish clay most commonly used at Arts Underground, and Yukon clay
sourced from the shores of Marsh Lake. In about a week, participants will be able to pick up their fired
pieces.
Cost per participant: $95 + $20 materials/firing=$115 + 5.75=120.75
