Intro to block printing: Carve & print your own designs
2026-06-24 18:00 - 19:30
Discover the magic of block printing in this 90-minute introductory workshop. Led by local-artist and printmaker Kasey Leung, you’ll be guided step-by-step through designing, carving, and printing your very own original block. Use it to create small art prints — perfect for gifting, sharing, or keeping for yourself. The emphasis is on process over perfection, with plenty of room to experiment and enjoy making with your hands.

No experience needed and all materials are provided. You’ll leave with finished prints and your carved block to take home, so you can keep printing and making art long after the workshops ends.

This program is for adults over the age of 18. Space is limited, registration is recommended. Walk-ins will be accommodated as space permits.

Kasey Leung, owner of MOS Designs, is a San Diego-based artist and adventurer who transforms outdoor-inspired nostalgia into handcrafted prints and illustrations. Drawing on her experiences snowboarding, rock climbing, surfing, and everyday outdoor moments, she uses bold flowy lines and imperfect shapes to capture movement and memories outside. Kasey loves helping beginners explore their creativity and bring their own designs to life, believing everyone is an artist in their own unique way.

Art as History: Contemporary perspectives on American and San Diego stories
2026-06-25 18:00 - 19:00
Drawing on the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego’s permanent collection, this presentation explores how contemporary artists over the last 50 years have engaged with United States history and reflected on it through their practices. Through a virtual tour of selected works, we will examine how artists have reimagined historical narratives — with a special focus on San Diego histories and the stories that shape our region. Join us for this visual journey connecting art, memory, and place.
