Learn about the traditional Japanese method of printing fish, a practice dating back to the mid-1800s.
Come celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month here at the library by making your own Gyotaku. Gyotaku is a form of nature printing, where ink is applied to a fish which is then pressed onto paper. This art form was used by fishermen to record their catches, but has also become an art form of its own. We will use fake fish dipped in to ink and press them into paper then apply water colors to highlight our art work.
This program is intended for children.
