Artist Patricia Wakida leads a linoleum carving and printmaking workshop for families inspired by Color Trip: Yoshida Hodaka's Modern Prints.
This interactive family workshop (recommended for ages 10 and up) with Patricia Wakida takes inspiration from Color Trip: Yoshida Hodaka’s Modern Prints. Participants will create a design using motifs and elements seen in the exhibition, learn how to carve it using soft linoleum, and then print their design using colorful ink. The museum’s Art Speak interns will provide assistance with carving tools.
Space is limited; pre-registration is required. Materials will be provided.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Patricia Wakida is a writer, artist and lover of books. A papermaker, apprentice bookbinder, letterpress printer, linoleum block carver, and fourth-generation Japanese American, Wakida has dedicated much of her career to researching and creating artwork that is reflective of her culture, history, and art. Her work reflects the struggle for equality by exploring an astonishing cultural resilience of the mind and adaptation to survive. Following apprenticeships in Japanese papermaking in Mino, Japan and printmaking at the Arts and Crafts in Berkeley, California, Wakida has continued drawing, carving, and printing in constant pursuit of whatever delights the eye.

General support for education is provided by the Dhanam Foundation; The William K. Bowes, Jr. Foundation Education and Research Fund; James C. Hormel and Michael P. Nguyen; The Morrison & Foerster Foundation; Dodge & Cox; and The Joseph & Mercedes McMicking Foundation. Support is also provided by an endowment established by The Hearst Foundations.
