SUMMARY:MAKE at Spudnik Workshop Series: Lino Block Printing
DESCRIPTION:About the Program: \nPart of the MAKE/MADE Program\, Make At Spudnik is a series of 1-day workshops that is free and open to the public\, as an effort to reach more print-curious audiences and provide an opportunity for interested participants to experience printmaking basics without the financial barrier to learning. This month\, we are inviting you to join us for a 1-Day Lino Block Printing class led by Teaching Artist Alex Kostiw. \nAbout the Workshop: \nRelief printmaking dates as far back as the 7th century and is considered the oldest form of printmaking. An image is carved into a block of wood or linoleum\, which is then inked and pressed to transfer the image. The tools are simple and approachable\, but the possibilities are expansive. \nIn Basic Relief Printing\, students will plan\, carve\, and print a linoleum block. The class guides students through the process of transferring an image onto their block and techniques for creating line\, shape\, contrast\, and texture. By the end of class\, students will print their images by hand\, taking home a small edition. \nRegistration for this free event is required to manage the number of participants and prepare the materials needed for the workshop. Donations are welcome and absolutely optional\, and will help Spudnik Press with its operational expenses. \nREGISTER FOR FREE \n——————– \nPrograms at Spudnik Press are partially supported by grants from the Illinois Arts Council Agency\, the Driehaus Foundation\, and the Gaylord & Dorothy Donnelley Foundation. \nThis project is partially supported by a Chicago Arts Recovery Program grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events.

SUMMARY:MAKE at Spudnik Workshop Series: Basic Monotype
DESCRIPTION:About the Program: \nPart of the MAKE/MADE Program\, Make At Spudnik is a series of 1-day workshops that is free and open to the public\, as an effort to reach more print-curious audiences and provide an opportunity for interested participants to experience printmaking basics without the financial barrier to learning.  \nAbout the Workshop: \nMonoprinting is an exciting form of printmaking that favors organic\, gestural\, textural\, and ephemeral marks and imagery. This process is an incredibly immediate\, intuitive\, and playful way of exploring printmaking. It is well suited to people new to printmaking and artists who typically work with paint\, mixed media\, or drawing. \nThis workshop will introduce students to the basics of monotype printing. Throughout the workshop\, students will discover ways to create unique prints while learning about the properties of ink\, paper\, pressure\, and how they interact to be able to explore the process of monotype on their own. Printing techniques will include additive and reductive processes\, stenciling\, and ghost printing. Each student will make three prints to explore these processes. \nRegistration for this free event is required to manage the number of participants and prepare the materials needed for the workshop. Donations are welcome and absolutely optional\, and will help Spudnik Press with its operational expenses. \nREGISTER FOR FREE \n——————– \nPrograms at Spudnik Press are partially supported by grants from the Illinois Arts Council Agency\, the Driehaus Foundation\, and the Gaylord & Dorothy Donnelley Foundation. \nThis project is partially supported by a Chicago Arts Recovery Program grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events.
