During this all-ages workshop, participants will explore the collaborative process of printmaking. Guided by printmaker (and University Galleries’ registrar) Lisa Lofgren, participants will each add a mark to a copper printing plate that will keep changing, mark by mark. Between each addition, the plate will be inked and pressed to create two prints: one for the participant to take and one for temporary display. Stop by on Friday, February 20 anytime between noon to 7:00 p.m. to make a mark. No registration is required. A reception will take place on February 20 from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. A pop-up exhibition of the progression of prints will be on view on Saturday, February 21 and Sunday, February 22 from noon to 4:00 p.m.
