The University of Mississippi Museum presents a one-day printmaking workshop with acclaimed printmaker, illustrator, graphic designer, animator, and 3D artist, Frank Estrada. All levels of experience are welcome, materials and supplies will be provided, and lunch is included. Pre-registration is required, as space is limited in this highly-anticipated workshop.

Join artist Frank Estrada as he teaches you the basics of relief printmaking. In this workshop, participants will learn how to carve original designs onto stamps and print them on paper and fabrics. Participants should expect to carve 1-3 small stamps (approx. 2″x4″ in size). Designs should be kept simple. Participants will receive step-by-step instructions to carve personalized rubber stamps, and create small compositions on paper and tote bags.
