PRINT-MAKING OPEN STUDIO w/ DANIEL + FRANCESCA

Alternating Saturdays  |   11AM – 2PM   |   $20

Open studio is a space to develop a print-making project in community with other organizers, artists, and cultural workers.

These sessions are designed for those who have taken Screen-print 101 or Revolutionary Print-making at The People’s Forum, or who have experience with print-making.

Come for one Saturday, or return every other week! Each session is drop-in and goals are defined by the participant.

Basic tools and materials are available—including ink, linoleum, paper, transparencies, screens, and emulsion.

Spring schedule: March 28 / April 11 / April 25 / May 9 / May 23 / June 6 / June 20

Registration is required. Co-facilitated by Daniel Drennan ElAwar and Francesca Barr.

Daniel Drennan ElAwar is an illustrator, printmaker, fiber artist, and educator. His work, based in a documentary genre, focuses primarily on issues of displacement, dispossession, and disinheritance. His research and practice concerning decolonization and resistance led to the founding in 2009 of a Beirut-based artists’ collective, ‎جمع اليد (Jamaa Al-Yad). He currently manages the studio and workshops for Frontline Arts in Branchburg, NJ.

Francesca Barr is a working artist and writer from Massachusetts. She loves screenprint for the physical labor it demands, and for its value in movement-making past, present, and future.
