CHALLENGE CLUB
SUN, NOVERMBER 16TH, 1PM
This is not your typical print class.
Each session = a creative challenge.
You’ll draw random prompts, techniques, and styles — then make two prints using RISO inks and a mix of media.
It’s messy, it’s fun, it’s where breakthroughs happen. 💡
We will be making 2+ prints every meetup using a series of constraints to spark creativity. Parameters to help inform our constraints will be random number generators, the knight's tour, astrology, and tarot.
Bring any additional mediums, pens, pencils, ect you'd like to use for your personal use.
