Make your own custom prints with this linocut printing workshop in San Francisco! Linocut printing is a relief printmaking technique with roots in early 20th-century graphic art and illustration. In this workshop, you’ll design and carve your own 4x6 rubber carving block and print a small edition of handmade prints.
In this class, an expert will teach you the fundamentals of linocut printmaking, from transferring your design onto the rubber block to safely carving your image using professional tools. You’ll explore positive and negative space, line weight, and texture, then roll ink and print your design using hand-printing techniques. You’ll have the opportunity to experiment with designs, whether it's a few small designs or one that fits the whole 4x6 block. This beginner-friendly class will have black ink and printmaking paper for you to make 5 prints, so by the end, you’ll have your very own small edition of original prints. You will also be able to take home your carved linoleum block to create more prints.
This linocut printmaking workshop is great for creating a handmade gift or for seeking fun things to do in San Francisco. Step in and discover the art of linocut printmaking and leave with custom prints you can frame, gift, or trade with friends!

Recent reviews of Linocut Printmaking Workshop

  • 5/5 from Heather Wolf, attended Sep 2026: The teacher was great at letting me try something and then ask questions. I really liked how we just jumped into the class.
  • 5/5 from Katherine Chen, attended Aug 2026: We took the Linocut Printmaking Workshop and had a great time! It's beginner friendly and Kalie is an amazing teacher and is super knowledgeable about the process. She explained everything to us clearly and provided us with guidance to make our designs pop more. The whole process was very fun, but the carving was my favorite part. We were able to turn our designs into prints to take home.
  • 5/5 from Emma Weinberger, attended Jul 2026: We loved our linocut class! Our instructor was so knowledgeable and helpful and it was so fun to leave the class with our new prints. Definitely interested in taking more courses with this studio in the future.
  • 5/5 from Bereket Abraham, attended May 2026: Kaytea was a great teacher and our prints turned out really well! I can't wait to try it again.
  • 5/5 from Alice Ottoson-McKeen, attended Mar 2026: I hadn’t done print making in over 20 years but wanted to create some cards to have on hand for thank yous and birthdays. The class was completely approachable and the teacher offered helpful guidance to make my design pop! I found the carving of the design very relaxing and actually went out and bought my own kit after the class. I was inspired! Great class!
