For this workshop, led by MFA candidate Tiana Boisseau-Palo, participants will utilize plexiglass to learn different methods of printing multicolored monotypes.

Snacks and beverages will be provided. Free and all are welcome!

Registration for the monotype workshop is limited to 12 participants - register here.��
