Instructor: Gabi

For the month of pride, we invite participants to remember our Queer and Trans-cestors through relief printing. In this class, learn how to carve and print multiple impressions of a relief block by hand. Draw inspiration from those who came before us to create hand-printed relief prints that honor their histories and celebrate our present existence. Lean into the somatic practice of hand sculpting a matrix to create a 2-dimensional image. 

For the month of pride, we are centering this class around Queer and Trans participants. If you do not identify with this community, please join us for a similar offering in the future.

Due to the topic of this class, we are offering a reduced rate option for BIPOC Queer and Trans participants with the intent of increasing accessibility and ensuring materials cost and labor are paid.

Accessibility: No prior printmaking experience needed. Fine motor skills are used in the carving process. Participants often stand during the hand-printing process but this can be adapted to a seated position if needed. Remaining parts of class can be done seated.

If you would like to request a community-funded seat to support in covering the cost of this class, please email us at curiositystudioclass@gmail.com.

Covid Safety Protocols

Masks are not required at this time. Masks continue to be available for participants and instructors that are interested in wearing them. We trust that individually and collectively we can exert care in our attendance decisions to promote the wellness of our community if feeling sick or symptomatic.
