On Earth Day, Saturday, April 22, celebrate at the Oklahoma History Center (OHC) by creating prints of local Oklahoma wildlife through the art of block printing.
In this 3-hour class, artist Ariana Weir will teach students the basics of relief printing including how to transfer a design, carve it out, and ink and print their own block. Participants will leave the class with their very own original works of art and the skills needed to create more at home in the future!

All class materials are provided with the cost of the class. Registration is required, and the class is limited to 12 people. Sign up today!
