Students produce artistic woodblocks at Blocktoberfest

November 3, 2023

Each fall semester, Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023 students work collaboratively with students from Florida State College at Jacksonville to produce large-scale - 8 ft. x 4 ft. - woodblocks using a steamroller.

Blocktoberfest is held each October and gives students from the two institutions the opportunity to work together while learning important printmaking skills. This year, 10 Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û2023 students and seven from FSCJ printed images on fabric for banners. These banners along with some of the large-scale blocks will be exhibited at MOCA next month. 

For the past eight years, the all-day event, held at the FSCJ South Campus, attracts family, friends, students, alumni and others who celebrate the quality of craft and mastery created by the students.
