Filter Effect: hot press workshop

Saturday, May 10, 2-5 pm, MWMO Stormwater Park and Learning Center, 2522 Marshall St. NE. Artist Brighton McCormick, whose current exhibit “Filter Effect” explores how stormwater infrastructure reflects the filtration we are constantly directing in our lived experience, will lead a hands-on workshop. Using cast metal brands from the Fire Press Library, you’ll learn how to burn intricate images into reclaimed wood and upcycled leather, turning salvaged materials into bold, lasting designs. Participants will create their own garden markers, patches and prints inspired by themes of water and reuse. This event is free, but registration is required. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/hot-press-workshop-tickets-1284247090619
