Whiteaker Printmakers is hosting another Social Pressure event on Friday, September 30, at 6:30 PM, during the Whiteaker Last Friday Art Walk.  We'll explore linocut printmaking -- a simple technique of printing from a linoleum plate hand-carved with specialized cutting tools. Everyone is welcome; no experience necessary. It's $10 to participate (all tools and materials provided), or free if you just want to hang out, watch, and be social.
