Steamroller Printing
April 21, 2018
Saturday April 21st, from 10:00-4:00
(Alternate date in case of severe weather: Saturday, April 28th)
The event will take place on the RMCAD campus: 1600 Pierce Street, Lakewood, CO 80214
This is a great opportunity for students, artists and the community to come together in a cooperative event to celebrate the art of printmaking as artists get their over-sized woodblocks inked and printed under the drum of a 2-ton steamroller.
Here’s how to participate (or just come and enjoy the spectacle).
You can carve a block on your own or work with a friend. MDF or wood boards must be ¾” thick with a minimum size of 3’ x 3’ up to 3’ x 8’. Your block may be cut to a shape or stay with the tried-and-true rectangle (shapes actually print better). Please seal boards with either shellac or polyurethane at least 24 hours in advance.
The fee is $25 and is non-refundable. This includes inking, paper and ONE print of your block.
