Come to our Block Party! Hand-print your own posters, T-shirts, tote bags, and tea towels using some of Nashville’s most iconic imagery, created right here at Hatch Show Print. As one of the oldest poster design shops in America, we’re still printing show posters for your favorite musicians, bands, and performers, one at a time, via letterpress printing. At the Block Party, adults work with a selection of hand-carved imagery and become familiar with the process of relief printing. Instructors will cover the basics of composing an image, with consideration given to creating layers and using color. You will learn how we sling the ink, roll the brayers, and design like it’s 1879, making each piece by hand, yourself. (Don’t worry, we’re there and happy to help.) The final reveal is a “Wow!” moment.
Cost: $75.
No experience necessary. All materials provided, but you may bring your own clean, washable fabric on which to print. This is an adult-specific (18+) program. Space is limited to 12 adults. For youth programming, please check our calendar.
