Event Overview

A handmade card is always a thrill to receive. Impress friends, family, and coworkers with a clever or charming hand-printed greeting card featuring your own design.

Students will each bring a one-color design that they would like to transform into a stack of greeting cards. Designs can be a black and white drawing, text-based, a Photoshop or Illustrator file, or found imagery.

Students will learn how to make their image “print ready” and will expose their image onto a screen using photographic emulsion in our darkroom. Everyone will mix their own custom ink color, register their image onto cards, and then print, print, print! Students will be able to make 12 valentines and are encouraged to swap cards with their classmates to bring home a DIY variety pack of cards.

What to Bring

20 blank cards (any color or size) and a 1-color design. Basic 5×7” flat cards are available for students who do not bring cards.

Minimum age

All ages welcome
