PRINT NIGHT WITH ELSPETH SLAYTER Date: Thursday, March 26 | 5:00–7:00 PM Course fee: $25. Participants are encouraged to bring their own paper and acrylic paint, but the Commons will provide, maintain and retain materials for ongoing print night use as well. We are offering six separate two-hour sessions to learn about and practice the gel plate monotype printmaking technique. These plates are an easily transportable printmaking technology eliminating the need for a printing press. Printmaking can be done on a tabletop, making it accessible to all. At the start of each session, a demonstration will introduce students to the basics of the gel plate printing process, from proper plate care to layering colors and building texture for both primary and ghost prints. The majority of the time will be spent in open studio format, with the instructor providing technical support to participants as needed. Students will be required to participate in the clean-up process. Each session is open to five community members who will need to register ahead of time.
