Block Printing Stationary Workshop

Join us for a hands-on introduction to this timeless art form.



3 hours Location Pilsen Class size 4 to 8 guests   $65

Block printing is one of the oldest—and most versatile—forms of printmaking. From a hand-carved block (typically wood or linoleum), artists have long used this process to print everything from textiles and books to grassroots posters. With "the hand" clearly visible, block printing remains wonderfully tactile and expressive in an otherwise very digital world.
Join us for a hands-on introduction to this timeless art form.

What to bring

Recent reviews of Block Printing Stationary Workshop

  • 5/5 from Aja Heinlein, attended May 2026: The class was great, I would highly recommend! The instructors, Colin and Angee are kind and helpful, making this art form accessible to all levels. I liked learning about and then participating in all parts of the process, from selecting an image all the way to inking and printing, you’ll do it all in this workshop. Without ClassBento, I am not sure that I would’ve even found out about this opportunity!
