ABOUT THE COURSE & PRINT DAY

This course costs $300 and it gives you access to Big Ink’s master course, three professionally made prints, a printmaking supplies sample kit courtesy of Speedball Art Products, and a paper sample pack courtesy of Legion. You and your fellow workshop participants will meet on an assigned day. Big Ink prints three impressions per participant. Lend a helping hand by holding paper or hanging prints. It is a chance to create friendships. In addition, the printing days are open for public viewing. Invite friends and family to celebrate your artistic accomplishment!

Presented by Big Ink, this workshop coincides with an upcoming Spring 1:1 Exhibition featuring Boston-based artist and printmaker Brooke Stewart. Curated by Liz Morlock, the exhibition is a compilation of new woodblock prints that capture brief encounters with loved ones.

Exhibition dates: Saturday April 29, 2023 — June 3, 2023.
