Studio Groups Begin at Noyo Printworks

Ready to get hands-on in the Studio? 

Studio Groups in Letterpress, Printmaking and Mono Printing provide the opportunity to explore work in your area of interest.  Supportive setting with expertise, equipment and materials fosters work on individual projects. Create a Poetry Broadside. Print an edition of a new drypoint plate.  Experiment with mono printing by hand and with a press.  

Each group will reflect the interests and experience of the participants. Studio leader will provide expertise and support.  Open to all, beginner to expert, for those who want to learn and practice in a professional Studio environment. 5 Week session for $100 each group.  Space is limited; new groups, and days may be added.  

Printmakers Studio Group: Tuesdays 11:00-4:00 from June 23 for 5 weeks   For artists who want to progress their knowledge and practice of printing on Sturges etching press as well as hand-rubbing of relief plates (linoleum, woodblock). This is an opportunity for experienced printmakers to enjoy the environment of a shared space rather than working alone.
