TETRAPAK WORKSHOP
Calling all baristas, oat milk fans, and really anyone interested in accessible matrices! Tetrapak is a cheap, accessible material typically made to package liquids such as juice, milk, broth, and more. Using boxes of oat milk (Thanks, Bohemeo's!), we will use the broken down packaging material to create beautiful etching matrices and beautiful prints!
In this workshop, we will scratch, scrape, and tear into our tetrapak plates, creating effects similar to traditional copper-plate etching. This workshop is ideal for anyone interested in art, drawing, printmaking, or cheap crafts!

LITTLE LETTERPRESS WORKSHOP
Join us for an introduction to letterpress printing at Red Bird Press. Participants will learn the basics of hand-setting type, operating a proofing press, and printing their own small edition of keepsakes to take home. No prior experience is required.
Perfect for curious beginners, artists, writers, and anyone interested in learning one of the oldest printing methods still practiced today! BYOB is welcome.
