Get into the spooky spirit and learn block printing by creating your own custom pumpkin-inspired art prints!


Nothing beats the satisfying feeling of carving your own design and seeing it come to life in ink. In this festive, hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the step-by-step process of relief printmaking with a seasonal twist. Guided by South Jersey artist & designer Zack Carr, we will transform classic jack-o'-lanterns, eerie silhouettes, or cozy autumn motifs into stunning, handmade art.


Whether you want to print a hauntingly beautiful piece to frame, create custom Halloween greeting cards, or just enjoy a creative afternoon with a touch of autumn magic, this class is designed for all skill levels—no prior experience required!


What You’ll Learn & Do ---

  • Spooky Concept & Design: Learn how to think in "positive and negative space" to design a striking pumpkin or Halloween motif and safely transfer it to your block.

  • The Art of the Carve: Master the use of linocut gouges to carve out details, textures, and glowing jack-o'-lantern grins.

  • Inking & Printing: Roll out rich, vibrant inks (think classic pumpkin oranges, deep midnight blacks, and autumnal hues) and learn hand-burnishing techniques to press your design.

  • Take Home the Magic: Leave with your reusable, custom-carved linoleum block and a unique patch of hand-printed artwork to display just in time for Halloween.
