Linocut Printmaking 101 $185.00 Level: Beginner Approx. Duration: 6 Hours (2 3-hour Weekly Sessions). This class is 2 parts, each a 3-hour session on consecutive weeks. You must attend both dates to complete your project, and you must attend the first day in order to proceed. Age Requirement: 16+ (Anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent/legal guardian who is also enrolled in the class.) Instructor: Sarah Bogdal In this hands-on workshop, you will explore the exciting world of Linocut Printmaking! Learn how to draw, transfer, carve and print your own design, leaving with your very own carved block and custom prints. Instructor Sarah Bogdal will take you through a historical perspective of printmaking, relief and linocut, moving on to an in-depth look at materials, and finally guiding you through the process of successful carving and printing. Students will leave with their own carved block, three custom prints created from the block, and resourceful materials distributed in the class for ongoing reference.

Please read the full FAQ and policy here: https://www.theforgenashville.org/class-policy-and-faq About the instructor: Sarah Bogdal is a printmaker living and working in Nashville, Tennessee. Her practice is shaped by the joy of the process: every linoleum block is a visual puzzle of light, texture, and space. She earned her BFA from Watkins College of Art in 2018 and has since exhibited her work in 16 states, tabled at dozens of art markets across the Southeast, and regularly hosts workshops to recruit others into the cult that is print. Sarah's goal is for each print to lie just shy of disorienting—visually dense enough to require a second look, rewarding those who let themselves linger.
