Course Code: 26SPM103I

This two-day, in-person workshop takes place on Saturday and Sunday, February 21st - 22nd, from 11AM to 5PM ET

  • Saturday, February 21st, from 11AM to 5PM ET
  • Sunday, February 22nd, from 11AM to 5PM ET

Please Note: Registration for this workshop closes on February 10th, at 11:59pm Eastern Time.


About the Workshop:

Join us for a weekend-long inky experiment in printing. Students will combine the traditional, tactile printing method of letterpress with the modern, vibrant, and somewhat "imperfect" quality of Riso printing to create unique, layered, and visually interesting prints. We will push the boundaries of both techniques through experimentation with color, texture, and design elements, and explore the differences between the two techniques. Students will make improvisational prints using found materials that they bring with them, and the printshop’s collections. At the end of the weekend we will bind together a simple collaborative zine of our experiments to share and take home.


Required Materials:

    • Low relief collage materials: fabrics with texture, lace, embroidery, found objects that can be scanned, plant materials, buttons, ribbon, bubble wrap, stickers and stencils. I will bring materials for students to experiment with, but they should bring anything that speaks to them and their work.

    All other materials will be provided by the Center for Book Arts at no additional cost.

      I purchased this for our trip to Texas from Alabama with our 2 year old American bulldog in tow. I wanted something that was able to keep her secure, but something that would be comfortable for her. I was also concerned about sizing because even though she is a medium sized dog, she has a wide chest. I got an XL. It fit her perfectly with the adjustable straps, it was easy to get it on and off of her, she didn’t mind it at all, and the straps were strong enough to keep her safe and in place.

But a big baby, especially when it comes to his toy\nOf course he's tough on them But These definitely held up well. So if you have a.n aggressive Chewer these are an excellent choice
