PLEASE NOTE:
RESCHEDULED from May 6th! Door opens at 6 PM on MAY 13th!
Please RSVP. Participants limited to 10.
First Fridays at PrintSpace have been a way to come together once a month and share ideas and interests while making prints of one kind or another. We have created some great art together, and I've appreciated the innovations, support and kindness of our community of printers! I absolutely love opening the studio so people can experience the workings of an etching press and the camaraderie of a printmaking studio.
On May 6th, PrintSpace will host Shout Out/Shout About! Who would you like to give a shout out to? OR, what do you need to SHOUT ABOUT? Pick one for starters, and you will cut out and design the letters in your own font style to represent the feeling behind the word. After the "word plate" is made, we will experiment printing with and without the press, and possibly print a group SHOUT.
The indoor studio will be open for the plate making and printing workshop, but we will also have a free outdoor pop-up printing tent open as an alternative for the curious. Pop in it to print an existing "Word Plate" on paper to take home.
Just in case you can't make it in person, there is a zoom link to join or just to say hello! (Note there is no charge for the zoom option, but you will have to gather your own materials. See materials list below for details).
