We are thrilled to invite you join us for an afternoon with Kelly Welk and Mollie Marigold. Kelly will welcome you in to our main room to enjoy mingling and meeting new friends by the crackling fire, with a feast of savory and sweet small bites, winter spritzers and so much time to learn from Mollie how to create your own Linocut Print Art.
Click Here to Watch Mollie Create a Linocut Print …. this is what you’ll learn how to do!
All of the details are covered for this cozy winter afternoon enjoying a spread of our favorite recipes, bubbly drinks and steaming mugs of coffee and tea while we learn. Linocut Art is a type of Block Printing. Mollie will teach you how to carve your design into a linoleum block, roll on block printing ink and then print it on paper! The best part is that you’ll go home with your own Linocut Block ready to print to your hearts content…create your own gift wrapping, or cards, tea towels or shirts. You get to use your design however your heart desires.
No experience necessary and no tools required. All you need is to come with a heart ready to learn, hands ready to create and an afternoon to enjoy all the beauty of savoring life and making art together.
We will provide all necessary elements:
linoleum blocks
carving tools
ink
rollers
paper
and the most delicious spread of small bites to enjoy along the way
We look forward to welcoming you into an afternoon spent creating together!
Let us introduce you to Mollie! You can find out even more and follow her fun art journey at @MollieMarigold
Mollie grew up outside of Portland, Oregon, where her brother with autism sparked her interest in using art to make connections with people. Spending hours her brother drawing saints and nuns, she saw art as a cathartic outlet for them both. From there she discovered fonts and calligraphy, and it has since become a lifelong passion. She earned BA degrees in Political Science and Spanish and a Masters in Social Work from the University of Washington, but she always made time to make art, experimenting with new techniques and materials. Through her training as a social worker, Mollie learned the role art could play in healing and providing a positive outlet for people to express themselves
