It runs 11am–3pm Saturday at the Seattle Art Museum, 1300 First Ave, a few minutes from Symphony Station on the 1 Line; no price is shown on the listing. That afternoon the museum's teahouse also hosts a Chanoyu tea demonstration at 3pm.

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.
