Explore Gelli printing with Taruna Singh!
Saturday Oct 25, 2025 11:30 AM - 2:30 PM
Join us for a fun and creative Gelli printing workshop! Participants will learn how to use a brayer to coat a Gelli plate with a fine layer of acrylic paint. Using stencils, stamps, natural elements like leaves, and recycled materials, participants create unique textured impressions on the plate. Once the design is ready, a piece of paper is smoothed over the prepared Gelli plate to ensure contact. Within a minute or less, participants lift the paper to reveal a beautiful mono print!
