with Jill Marks
Tuesday, September 23rd, 1-4pm
$75 | Ages 12+ (with accompanying adult)
All skill levels welcome!
Come and experience the world of Gel Plate Printing! Students will get to experiment with a gel plate to create interesting monoprints using all kinds of found objects as well as their own handmade stencils. We will be using acrylic paint and each student will have a gel plate and lots of paper to work with. There is no need for prior art experience with this technique. It is a fun and approachable process that both adults and youth can enjoy.
All class materials will be provided but students can bring their own stencils if they would like to. Students should wear clothes that they may get paint on. Deadline to register is September 20

To help ensure an enjoyable experience for all, we kindly encourage guests to consider attending fragrance-free in support of those with allergies and sensitivities.
