*COSTUMES ENCOURAGED*
Cost is $35 per person.
Description:
This class will run for 2 and a half hours with a break in between! You will learn all the steps it takes to print with a freshly carved block/stamp!
- Drawing an image
- Transferring image to block
- Carving your block
- Inking your block
- And finally, printing your design!
If there is extra time, you can even start a second block to carve! 👀
All supplies will be provided! (Designs to transfer, rubber blocks, carving tools, brayers, ink, paper) There will also be beginner kits available to purchase before or after the class!!
ONLY 15 TICKETS AVAILABLE!!!
$35 per person
Can either direct message me to claim your spot or PIF Cider and to pay!
(Cash, paypal, venmo, cashapp)
I will be sure to post when ticket spots are getting low!
There will be some refreshments AND home made baked goods available ☺️ But please be sure to bring some water to stay hydrated since this will be a long class 🙏
Once prints have been printed, we will wash our blocks off and you'll keep them for yourselves! I will have drying racks set up for prints to dry. They take at least 3 full days for dry time!!! So you will have to come back to pick up your prints a few days after the class. Or if you feel comfortable taking them with you, you can do that also! But be aware of smudging!
Thank you so much for your interest in this workshop! I cannot wait to build a bigger Art community within Alpena and spread knowledge of different art forms!
6pm - 8pm Cost to non-members is $20 and includes a curated flight. Please purchase tickets from our website to reserve a seat.

Vocalist and guitarist Joe Chamberlin, having performed at music venues throughout the United States for more than a decade, brings his Hendrix-Frusciante inspired riffs, and pop sensibilities with him into Gemini Moon. While vocalist Casmira Draconid, having been born into a musical family, continues a long tradition in the arts, bringing their masteful prose and powerful voice to the songs of Gemini Moon.
The group is influenced by 90s alternative and 60s/70s classic rock, as well as blues, pop, and folk from all eras. Gemini Moon blend these influences together into a playful, loving, and inviting musical space with balanced tones and mindful volume.
This Labor Day, we’re reminded that the holiday exists because of the hard work, heart, and dedication of working people—especially those who build the foundations of our community.
For us here in Alpena, no group embodies that more than our educators and school staff at @alpenaschools Teachers, counselors, janitors, lunch workers, bus drivers, administrators—you carry so much on your shoulders. You don’t just teach; you inspire, protect, guide, and nurture. You keep the lights on, the halls clean, the students safe, and the doors open to possibility. None of us would be where we are today without your labor of love.
As former teachers ourselves, we know the long nights, the hard conversations, the endless giving of your energy and care. We also know the difference it makes in a young person’s life when an adult shows up with compassion, encouragement, and belief.
This Labor Day weekend, we want to celebrate you.
All teachers and school staff will receive 40% off all purchases at our cider taproom Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Just show your school ID and let us serve you as a small token of our enormous gratitude.
To every single educator and staff member in Alpena: thank you for shaping futures, strengthening families, and reminding us that the most important work often happens quietly, day after day. We see you, we appreciate you, and we raise our glass to you this weekend.
Happy Labor Day, and thank you for all you do.

Tired of waiting for politicians to make change? So are we. Learn how working folks are taking charge.
