November 6, 2010, Saturday - Holiday Note Cards (Beginners) at MCBA

Time: 12:30pm-4:30pm

Location: Minnesota Center for Book Arts (MCBA), 1011 Washington Avenue South

For families with children in Grade 1 and up.

Jump into the Holiday spirit by making your own cards this season. Each adult/child pair will create note cards with a festive image and letterpress greeting, while learning to use the platen and Vandercook presses. Students will design pressure print images and choose text from a variety of pre-set holiday messages. (Please note that students will not be setting their own type in this class.) Each pair will print 40 cards. Single/additional participants will print 20 cards. Envelopes also will be provided.

This workshop is recommended for those taking the class for the first time and/or for families with younger children. If you've participated in past years, or for older children and teens, see the Advanced session.

Cost: $52 ($48 members) per adult/child pair, $26 ($24) each additional participant.
