Family Art Project: Grateful for Trees Canvas Bags
About
Families print real tree leaves onto reusable canvas bags to take home, a tree-themed project for Wave Hill's Gratitude Weekend. Meet at Wave Hill House, 4900 Independence Ave, Bronx, NY 10471 (Metro-North to Riverdale and the free shuttle, or the 1 to 242nd St and the BxM1/Bx7 bus). Sunday, November 29, 10am–1pm; free with admission to the grounds, no registration required. The same morning Wave Hill also runs Yoga in the Garden ($25) and Mindful Needle Felting ($45), and this is one of just two family listings on our New York calendar that Sunday.

New to printmaking?
Printmaking classes cover ways of making an image you can print more than once: carving lino or wood blocks, screen printing, monotypes, etching or letterpress.
- Block printing and monotype are the friendliest starts; etching and letterpress need more studio time.
- Inks stain. Wear old clothes and expect to wash up at the end.
- You usually leave with an edition of several prints, not just one.
Taking it home: Usually the same day, once the ink is dry enough to carry. Oil-based prints may need a few days.
