Children and families are invited to join Hamilton based illustrator Kento Cady to make patterns and designs using relief printing techniques. Shop less by creating your own wrapping paper, cards, and messages for the holiday season using simple printmaking techniques. Come explore the artsy side of DIY with us, and take home prints made by yourself and other workshop participants. All materials provided.
