Join us at Scandinavia House for an adult art workshop and tour of our current exhibition, Fog Swept Cargo: Art from the Faroe Islands. Inspired by the work of artist Tóroddur Poulsen, workshop participants will create collograph prints. Guided by teaching artist Korka, participants will use printmaking ink, glue, cardboard, and various found materials to make prints of a pattern in a relaxed atmosphere. All materials are provided.
