Come learn about Indigenous printmaking and work with artists and peers to create your own prints that centre your story!

This Spring, Secwépemc artist Tania Willard will lead a series of virtual workshops illustrating personal and cultural narrative form through printmaking. Using linocut relief printing techniques, over the course of the 4 workshops, participants will explore imagery, composition, and narrative and create 2 final blocks, which Willard will print at the Kamloops Printmakers Society.

A complete materials kit with tools, lino plates, ink, and more is included with registration.

This program is open to folks of all skill levels and abilities, prioritizing Indigenous, Black, POC, and LGBTQIA2S+ participants. Please note registration is for all dates in the series.

REGISTER ONLINE

This program is generously supported by the British Columbia Arts Council, and is supported by and printed at the Kamloops Printmakers Society.
