In this workshop we explore the meditative rhythm of lino-cut block printing. Participants will carve a simple, repeatable design into soft linoleum and hand-print it onto paper and cotton tea towels. The carving process is slow and satisfying, and the printing reveal is always a little magical. Designs can be bold and graphic or delicate and minimal.

Materials included.

Sometimes you just need to make something with your hands and not overthink it. In this relaxed, low-stakes workshop we’ll design and silk-screen bold, graphic imagery onto canvas tote bags. Choose from pre-made designs or create your own simple motif, then pull your own prints using professional screens and fabric ink. Expect a satisfying process, inky hands, and a functional finished piece. (Ages 16+)

This workshop introduces photography as a mindful, reflective practice. Rather than focusing on technical perfection, participants are guided to slow down, observe deeply, and create images rooted in presence and personal meaning. Through simple exercises and prompts, you'll explore light, texture, and emotion while reconnecting with the joy of seeing. Based on the Look Again methodology in which Melissa is certified. Students will leave with printed photos.
