Join Hawai‘i Nei at Wailoa Center on Wed. June 19, 2019 for a special workshop in partnership with the Volcano Art Center honoring the life, art and legacy of the late Dietrich Varez who passed away last August. Varez is best known for his extensive collection of linoleum-block and screen printed images, of which more than 250 have been published. Each image would begin with reading and research. A particularly colorful or visual passage in a legend was often the stimulus. From 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm, participants can ink carved linoleum-block prints depicting the flora and fauna found in our diverse ecosystems. This workshop will be guided by Desiree Cruz and is open to the public. Registration is not required, however a $5 donation supply fee is graciously requested.

Hello.
Six of us will be visiting Volcano tomorrow and would like to participate in an artistic experience.
Does your block printing class include making your own block print?
