Description
Discover the joy of printmaking in this creative, hands-on workshop led by celebrated artist and educator Maritza Dávila. Using simple materials like sticky labels, textured wallpaper, and mat boards, participants will create small collage-style plates that can be pressed by hand to produce unique, layered prints on paper. No press required!
This beginner-friendly session invites playful experimentation with pattern, texture, and composition. All materials will be provided.
