Groundworks Art Lab

Welcome to Quick Print! These one-time classes offer students a crash course in one specific type of print without the commitment of a multi-week class. Perfect for beginners, experimenters, or anyone looking for a fun way to learn a new skill fast!

Collagraphy is a printmaking process in which found materials are glued or sealed to a rigid substrate (paperboard in this instance) to create a plate. Once inked, the plate becomes a tool for imprinting the design onto paper with the resulting print termed a collagraph. The term "collagraph" is derived from the Greek word koll or kolla (also where the French get "collage"), meaning glue, and graph, meaning the activity of drawing.

This quick class will run you through the basics of creating a unique, free-form collaged plate, mixing and applying ink, and using our printing presses to make totally original artwork that you can treasure forever.

Ages: 16+ 

All supplies and materials will be provided. 

Will be available to register on Friday, April 4 at 8:00 am.
