Overview
Get inspired by plants and nature in a hands-on printmaking workshop with exhibiting artist Emily Clare
Learn to use Gelli plates and a variety of botanical materials—such as leaves, flowers, and grasses—to create layered, one-of-a-kind prints. This all-ages, drop-in creative session encourages experimentation with color, texture, and composition while exploring the beauty of natural forms. No experience is needed, just curiosity and a love for nature-inspired art. Materials are provided and all ages and skill levels are welcome.
This Art in the Park session will be led by Emily Clare, is a visual artist from Cookeville, TN, who now lives and works in Winston-Salem.

Clare is a co-founder of the Ardmore Art Walk in Winston-Salem and recently completed artist residencies at Norman Bird Sanctuary in Newport, RI, and Virginia Center for the Creative Arts in Amherst, VA.
