Course Description:
You’ll spend this studio-based class carving, inking, and hand-printing linoleum blocks while learning the core techniques of relief printmaking. Through demonstrations and guided work time, you’ll leave with a solid foundation in linocut printmaking and a small edition of your own prints.
Skill Level: Beginner
Course Description:
Originally developed to emulate charcoal drawings, soft-ground etching can capture an extensive range of textures, from the delicate intricacy of a fingerprint to the dynamic energy of a brushstroke. This class will demystify the process. You'll learn the techniques and recipes needed to create your own soft ground etchings on copper, from beginning to end.
Skill Level: All Level

Join us for a special Artist Talk at the closing celebration of Presence and Absence: The Space Between.
Throughout the exhibition, visitors have engaged in thoughtful conversations about memory, loss, resilience, impermanence, and the traces we leave behind. This Artist Talk offers an opportunity to continue that dialogue by hearing directly from the artists whose work has shaped the exhibition.
Course Description:
If you are new to either art making or screen printing, this class is for you. Using a mix of techniques and tools, you’ll learn to photo expose screens and play with images and inks to make prints on paper and/or clothing. You can produce a lot of prints quickly, each one with slight imperfections that make it unique. Plan to play and make a few mistakes and messes along the way. You’ll have help and examples to guide you to a finished project meaningful to you.

Course Description:
Explore traditional and contemporary methods of relief printmaking to become familiar with the tools, techniques and the translation of imagery and ideas for this rewarding process. New students will be introduced to linoleum, wood, and alternative substrates. Returning students will be guided through more advanced techniques including reduction prints, additive processes, multiple block and color methods of printing, as well as exploring more contemporary approaches and applications.
Course Description:
This is for experienced printmakers who want studio access without instruction (a monitor is present). Anyone enrolling must take a studio orientation and adhere to EAC studio policies on materials, clean-up, as well as entrance and exit procedures. We strongly prefer that at least one EAC printmaking course has been taken prior. Independent Study schedules will be announced the first week of class. New enrollees must contact Director of Education or Studio Coordinator Duffy O’Connor prior to registering.
