The Linocut workshop with artist Mafalda Nicolas Mondestin, offered by the Art Center, will allow you to learn how to properly use the gouges (the tools used to dig the lino), how to ink the plate and print one or multiple images.

Recall that linocut is a printing technique akin to woodcut. From the creation of the drawing to the printing through the inking and engraving on the other hand, all the stages of linocut are thus studied during this workshop.

This workshop will also cover collagraphy, a printing technique with the superimposition of materials on rigid cardboard.

Workshop from March 7 to April 18 on Saturdays from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m.

Come and register quickly at the Art Center. There are not many places left
