Create unique, hand-drawn prints while reducing and reusing “waste”! Tetrapak is a common material used for packaging shelf-stable milks, soup, and other liquids and they are not recyclable because of their waxy and multi-material composition—BUT! in this class, students will use them as printing plates to create drypoints. Drypoint is very similar to etching, but without the use of chemicals!
The other benefit of utilizing Tetrapaks as a plate is its ability to be easily cut into smaller pieces and shapes. Come learn something new or reunite with printmaking, and make art and friends while reducing waste!
All skill levels welcomed, all materials provided – must be 18+
