Aug 23 Community Saturday - Nature Printing with Petals and Leaves

  • Red Wing Arts 436 West 3rd Street Red Wing, MN, 55066 United States (map)

Red Wing Arts is pleased to host free artmaking opportunities for community members to learn, experiment with, and experience different techniques and media. Community Saturdays are free and open to all ages to drop in and stay as your schedule allows. All materials are provided.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Celebrate the beauty of the outdoors by turning natural materials into works of art! We’ll explore the art of nature printing using real petals, leaves, and other gathered botanicals.

You’ll learn simple techniques to press and print with natural textures, creating colorful, one-of-a-kind designs on paper and fabric. All materials will be provided, but feel free to bring your own pressed leaves or favorite finds from a nature walk.


This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
