Print Parties
Are you looking for a fun night in? A team Christmas Party activity?
A girls night? or kids birthday party idea?
A Printy Play session is a unique printmaking experience, offered either as a small group in my studio, or at your location. Just pick your pre-carved blocks and colours and enjoy an hour of printy play.
What you can expect
As the host you may choose up to twelve blocks from the sampler, and three colours for your party.
(Choices are made up to two days prior)
I will bring along all the printing gear, a table cloth to protect your space and blank greeting cards.
A dining table with room around is a great space to work.
Some people may like to print by hand with a baren or spoon at the table, others may like to apply extra pressure by standing on the print. Any floor protection is the hosts responsibility, a drop sheet or a designated floor printing area with newspaper would be suitable.
The inks we’ll be using are water soluble and clean up with soap and water.
I’ll set up the printing space (about 10 min) demonstrate the inking and printing process and then stand by to help with printing and to replenish inks as you create your masterpieces.
Your guests will need drying space for their prints away from the printing space.
At the end I'll bundle all the table mess away.
Price $50 pp 4-6 people
Additional people $30pp up to 10. Please ensure you have ample space for bigger groups.
Want to take it further?
Carve your own block add-on.
$75pp for 4-6 people only. 1.5 hrs.
Spend approximately 30 mins carving your own design or a prepared block before the standard printy play session.
I provide a selection of blank and predrawn blocks, and carving tools to share.
