Gelli Plate Printing with Maja Cunningham

This hands-on workshop is an open invitation to loosen up, experiment, and rediscover the joy of making art. Using gelli plates, we’ll explore color, texture, and layering in a playful, low-pressure way. This is perfect for anyone craving a creative reset.

We’ll work intuitively with acrylic paint, mark-making tools, stencils, and found textures to build layered prints full of depth and character. You’ll be encouraged to follow what feels interesting rather than striving for perfection. Some prints will feel finished, others may become backgrounds for future work, and that’s part of the magic.

Expect happy accidents, unexpected textures, and plenty of moments where the print turns out better than planned.

Whether you’re an experienced artist or a complete beginner, gelli plate printing offers an accessible, freeing way to jumpstart creativity and have fun making art again.
