WondeRoom: Indian Block Printing Stamps

Master artist Trisha Gupta will guide you through creating your own Rajastani wood block using motifs from nature. During the workshop, participants will design and create their own stamp to print. The stamp can be used on fabric or paper, and is perfect for sharing with family and friends.

She has conducted workshops on the tradition at the Elizabeth Blackburn Printmaking Foundation, Weave a Real Peace (WARP), the George Washington University Museum and The Textile Museum, and at the other venues throughout the Mid-Atlantic. In 2020, she was awarded a Folklife Apprenticeship from the Maryland State Arts Council.
