SUMMER CAMP: Printmaking

This camp is a one-week excursion into the wonderful world of printmaking! Get inked up with different screen-printing, block printing, and risograph techniques. Using these different printmaking methods, we will make vibrant self-portraits, experiment with layering/ combining images, and compose imaginary worlds.

Our final project will be a short collaborative zine for everyone to make and share.
