What are our options?
At the end of the day, we are just happy to be nerding out about art with you! Caitlin has experience working with all ages and levels of creativity and is flexible to adapt to the needs and interests of your group. That being said, here are some unique suggestions:
Linocut printing: learn how to prepare and edition a linocut print.
T-Shirt printing: choose from Caitlin’s hand-carved stamps to print your own T-shirt, tea towel, or tote bag.
Tetrapak printing: learn how to prepare and edition a tetrapak print.
Cyanotype: learn how to create images with this photographic process. No darkroom required, but we do need some sunshine!
Lego printing: a big hit with kids and grown-ups alike! Can be printed on your choice of paper or fabric.
Don’t see what you like? Let us know what art activities you’re into, and we can customize a workshop or event for you. If we don’t have what you’re looking for, we’ll do our best to connect you with another local artist who can.

Thanks, Ladies!
I had the best group of women out for a private workshop at Maplewood Studio the other day! The group booked an afternoon workshop to learn how to carve and print their own linocut edition. We had so much fun and I can’t wait for them to come back for another printmaking adventure!

Moncton Buskers Festival 2024
What a delight it was to enjoy a weekend of live printing at the Moncton Buskers Festival! Woodward the Woodzilla press and I helped visitors print 170 linocut prints with my hand-carved linocut stamps, and it was SO MUCH FUN. Thanks to the City of Moncton and Atelier Imago for hiring me to nerd out about printmaking all weekend!
Polarfest 2024!
Thanks so much to the City of Moncton, Atelier Imago, and everyone who came out to participate in my live printmaking demonstrations at Polarfest! It was chilly, but oh so fun!
Third Shift 2024
A big thank you to Third Space Gallery for orchestrating and including my and Natt Cann’s piece, Habitation, in this year’s epic Third Shift Festival! We had so much fun sharing our interactive installation with everyone at the marvelous Haven Music Hall in downtown Saint John.
Habitation will be on display once more, this time as part of the group exhibition, Across the Threshold, at the George Fry Gallery in Fredericton. It will be open from September 5th till October 2nd, so be sure to pop in and check it out!
