Block Printing Workshop
Stamping gives us the opportunity to create our own images, repeat them, and share them. Join resident artist Sammy in creating your own stamp project, with enthusiastic guidance and instruction. All levels welcome - from “I have no idea what to do, help!” to “Thanks, I’ll be over here doing my thing.” All materials will be provided.
Print Workshop will include some warm-up activities, snacks and as much instructional or open time as needed. Feel free to join part-way through for a couple hours, or become a repeat student and develop your skills with instruction.
Sliding scale pricing, $20 - 80

Stamp Camp
Join us at the Center for our first ever Stamp Camp with resident artist Sammy Burhoe. We will immerse ourselves in practices of observation and making new images through drawing and printmaking, as well as group experiments both outdoors and in the studio. Through both analog skill instruction and structured creative free time, participants can expect to learn/develop skill as well as to expand into creative play. (Ages 18+)
Overnight camping options are available. Sliding scale pricing is available.

Yoga
Each Saturday morning we come together to breathe, stretch, play, and practice bringing awareness to the present moment experience of our mind and body. This is a vinyasa-style class that invites a flowing sequence to link breath and body. Difficulty is altered according to the season and the mood and needs of the group. Modifications and some props are offered and available to meet you where you are. We often incorporate pranayama (controlled breathing) and short meditations into our practice.
