What an awesome summer, experimenting with printmaking!

From sunprints and stamps to collaborative linoblock carving, cARTie kids and community members learned A LOT. We are so excited to release a limited edition set of prints from our collaborative linoblock. Stay tuned for more information on how you can get a copy!

Special shoutout to our partners at the New Britain Museum of American Art ( New Britain Museum of American Art ) and the Art Bridges Foundation ( Art Bridges Foundation ) for making this possible!
