Concept
Dive deep into the world of printing and bookmaking! In this five-day workshop, we explore different printmaking techniques and bookbinding practices. Students learn about negative space and different printmaking processes, print on both paper and fabric, make multiple editions of individual prints, and discover new ways to bring it all together into hand-bound books. Join us for this exciting workshop, and leave the week with a varied collection of personal and vibrant pieces of art!
