Spring 2026 OLLI Digital Catalog – under construction 

INTAGLIO PRINTING WITH KITCHEN ODDS AND ENDS WITH THE ART STUDIO (B364)

B – Fine Arts

Explore the art of intaglio printmaking using simple, accessible materials you can find at home! In this hands-on class, you’ll learn how to transform a plastic surface — such as a recycled milk carton or food container — into a makeshift printing plate. Using a sharp tool, you’ll incise your design into the surface, then apply and wipe ink into the grooves to prepare your image for printing. Some images will be provided, but participants are encouraged to bring in their own sketches and inspiration. Offered in partnership with The Art Studio, the arts education center of New Castle County’s Department of Community Services, located at 310 Kiamensi Road, Wilmington, DE 19804. Additional fee: Please note that this course requires an additional fee of $37. Participants receive a payment link from OLLI prior to the first class. There is also an additional $10 material fee due to the instructor at the first class.

This offering meets for a total of 1 session(s).
