Block Parties
All Tickets: $75.00
Come to our Block Party! Hand–ink and print on paper and fabric using some of Nashville’s most recognizable imagery, cut into printing blocks by the designers at Hatch Show Print. At the Block Party, work with a selection of hand-carved printing blocks 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.
Handmade Since 1879
The shop’s enduring design and production approach is a handmade mainstay in a world of digital design. Specializing in limited-runs of posters in which one designer oversees the entire process from start to finish, including the packing and shipping of the posters, Hatch Show Print’s history of commercial printing continues with the commemorative works of art printed in the shop today.
