Light Snacks provided and BYOBev is back!
Please RSVP. In Studio 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 October 7, PrintSpace will provide styrofoam plates for engraving Portraits, whatever that may conjure up in this season of pumpkin carving, sugar skulls, bats and monsters. Come if you will with a line drawing idea to transfer to the styrofoam. We can print the plates with ink or with marker. We can print small editions for trading with others or hanging around the neighborhood. We can string them together for a mini exhibition. We can do whatever we like! Scary, right?
In Person charge of $15 will cover basic materials. And snacks!
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).
