The white line woodcut or “Provincetown print” method was invented in the early 1900’s in Provincetown by a group of artists working to simplify traditional Japanese woodblock printing. White line prints can be simple or elaborate, realistic or abstract. Learn this low-tech method here, then continue printing in your home or studio! The classes will be held on Saturdays, April 5 and 12 from 10:30-1:30 pm. For those who are 15 years old and older.
