Print Day in May at SSANC

  • Events

MAY 1, 2021  |  11 AM – 3 PM

Welcome to Print Day in May!

Printing Activities at SSANC

These activities offer printmaking without a press and are easy to set up and most accessible to the general public should they want to continue printmaking at home!

1. Gyotaku Printmaking

Learn how to make prints of fish!

Gyotaku is the traditional Japanese method of printing fish, a practice that dates back to the mid-1800s. This form of nature printing was used by fishermen to record their catches but has also become an art form of its own.

$ There will be a minimal cost for materials, TBD…

2. Bob Morouney’s Postcard Colouring and Raffle Draw!

As part of his art installation in our current show, Printers Inc., people are encouraged to colour copies of his prints on postcards. Take it home or, for a $1 donation, we’ll mail your coloured postcard to someone for you!

The Colour Notes Series:
Decoding an image from an etching’s black lines on white paper is a bit like solving a puzzle. A colour clue in the title of a black and white etching invites the viewer a little further into the game. Adding colour notes to the picture asks the viewer to imagine which colours match which objects. To play with the art a little more, please colour a postcard. There are no rules: colour the postcard using the suggestions by the artist, or according to your own fancy. Art has always been a game of imagination.

You can take the postcard home and send it to a friend. Or, you are invited to put your own address (or your friend’s address) on the back of the postcard and add it to the exhibition; at the end of the show, we’ll mail the postcard to its destination.222

WHAT’S PRINT DAY IN MAY?

Every year on the first Saturday in May, printmakers worldwide celebrate Print Day in May in print shops, studios, kitchens, on beaches, and sidewalks all over the world. For 24 hours, as the day unfolds around the globe, printmakers in over 70 countries begin making prints and join in this powerful celebration of creativity. By nightfall we share our work on social media and the PDiM website with thousands of others, creating a community chain around the world.
