Second Saturday Workshop: Historic Patterns & Printmaking

Saturday, October 10, 11am-2pm

Create your own block print inspired by the interiors, textiles, and decorative wall paintings of Thomas Cole’s 19th-century home. Begin with a special tour of the historic Main House to explore the patterns and hand-painted borders Cole selected for his home, then head to the Storehouse to create your own linocut and 19th-century-inspired bandbox featuring your custom design. All materials are included.

The workshop takes place in the historic Storehouse, adjoining Cole’s original painting studio. All ages are welcome; some sharp tools will be used. Participants are encouraged to bring lunch. Coffee, tea, and snacks are available for purchase at the Cole Center.
