Lino-Printing Workshop

Local artist Lana Jamieson will be leading a special lino-printing workshop at the Museum!

Lana will provide the skills, tools, and materials to help you create your very own lino-cut pattern block and prints. Space is limited, so be sure to sign up early for this FREE workshop!

The workshop will run from 12:30 to 2:30 pm and is geared for family groups - book one spot per child! The process involves some sharp tools, so all youth under 12 must have a parent or guardian present at the workshop.

Participants will be provided with paper to print on - but you are welcome to bring a canvas or cotton bag, shirt, or pillowcase with you! We will have fabric printing inks available.

Family "leaves a mark" like little else, and our workshop aims to give you and yours the skills to "imprint" some imagination with your very own Lino Prints!

Pre-register online! The workshop is FREE but donations are always appreciated! Get in touch with Skylar at 250-362-7722 or community@ rosslandmuseum.ca for more info.
