$150 for Members $170 for non members

Bring your own scissors. A ruler would be nice, also.

Please bring your own gel plate and brayer if you are interested in "Gel Printing".

I do have a little extra equipment if you want to "try before you buy" a Gel plate and brayer.

I will supply some papers, collage materials, paint, stencils, mediums. But it's  better if you bring things you have found, or pictures of people or things you want in your design. If you prefer using certain papers please bring them. I can print from your photo.

Make AMAZING Art! Let's play!

Let's start without caring where we end up.

Or start with a plan and kind of stick to it.

It's low pressure learning.

It's about mediums and color, cutting, tearing and pasting,

using brushes, finding a stencil to start or end a thought,

and exploring gel plate printing. And admiring each others work!

Composition is the hidden prize!
