Sustaining Creative Strategies in Printmaking

Concept
This unique opportunity for advanced printmakers creates a forum for dialog about how to curate your practice to push your work into a strong direction. Artists are invited to work on self-directed projects in the printmaking area of their choosing while receiving technical support in tandem with critical feedback. Opportunities for technical demonstrations, group critique and one-on-one mentorship make up the structure of this Master Class. *Brian Shure will be present for the entire duration of the workshop; Elliott Hundley will join daily from 1-5PM.
To attend a Master Class workshop, a portfolio review is due by Friday, February 11th, 2022. Instructions on how to submit your portfolio are as follows:
