Explore the processes of drawing and printing, and create a collection of artist prints and zines (self-published work of original or appropriated texts and images). This class is tailored to individuals who enjoy cartooning, bookmaking and forms of printmaking. Each student will leave with a diverse collection and new understanding of artist prints and zines. Campers should bring lunch, a drink, and paint-friendly clothing! Friends and family are invited to join us Friday at 1:45pm for a mini exhibition of camper’s work. Ages 9-12.
