Pen Pal Club: Lino Cutting Workshop

Spend your Saturday evening slowing down, making art with your hands, and meeting new people in a relaxed living-room style setting.

• Create your own linocut stamp: a beginner-friendly printmaking technique where you carve a design into a soft linoleum block and turn it into a handmade print
• Make and print postcards using your stamp during the workshop
• Join the Recess Pen Pal Club: opt in to be matched with another attendee and leave with someone new to write to after the event
• Connect with other creatives in a relaxed, welcoming, low-pressure social space in Toronto

No prior art experience needed — come alone or with a friend. All materials are provided.

Pardis Pahlavanlu is an artist and illustrator living as a guest between Tkaronto (Toronto) and unceded Coast Salish territories (Vancouver). While her academic studies have revolved around systems of power in contemporary colonial states, her artistic work has centred on the healing that is necessary in these contexts.

In her workshops, Pardis aims to make art-marking accessible to all, allowing room for imagination and play to take place. She meets people where they are at and offers various approaches for teaching printmaking, collaging and other mediums. Her goal is that participants walk away with pride in their learning capacities and an eagerness to learn more, whatever that may be.
