Printmaking Workshop

Captain Palmer House

Monotype magic is happening at the Captain Nathaniel B. Palmer House, Saturday, May 24 at 10AM.

We bring the ink, paper, and rollers.
You bring yourself (and maybe an apron).
You’ll leave with frame-worthy prints and ink-stained bragging rights.
Warning: Side effects may include sudden bursts of inspiration and a newfound love for rollers.
Limited spots—because even creativity needs a headcount.
