Pressing Stories: Folding Prints as Narratives with Andrea Narno

August 14, 2023 - August 18, 2023

| $350 – $1200

Pressing Stories: Folding Prints as Narratives – Andrea Narno

Dates: August 14 – 18, 2023
Studio: Relief
Tuition: Sliding Scale, $350-$1200
Lab fee: $75
Class limit: 8

During this workshop, we will explore how printmaking can serve as our visual language to narrate stories and express ourselves. We will pair relief printing with the long standing tradition of do-it-yourself zine making. After looking at a large variety of examples and brainstorming together, each student will design and carve a linocut that is meant to be cut, folded, and transformed into a zine using a single sheet binding. This class will focus on linoleum cutting and printing techniques, the creation of dynamic and sequential graphic imagery, as well as the incorporation of text and image for visual and narrative impact.

In order to reserve your space in the class, we require a deposit. From the drop down menu below, please select your desired tuition level. Registration is on a first-come first-served basis, and you can read about our refund and cancellation policies here.
