Blocktoberfest Showcases Student Creativity in Jacksonville

Staff Report / jaxlocal.org

The annual Blocktoberfest event took place on October 26 at South Campus in Jacksonville, Florida. The event draws students from Florida State College at Jacksonville (FSCJ) and other colleges.

In preparation for Blocktoberfest, students created unique designs by drawing and carving them into wooden blocks. During the event, these blocks were used to produce large-scale prints. The process involved hand-inking the designs and then using a steamroller to press the images onto fabric, resulting in one-of-a-kind prints.
