Myrtle Ave. Street Fair - Silk Screening LIVE!

Please join The Pressure Print Collective next Sunday, September 6th as we take part of the first Move About Myrtle.

We will be silk screening canvas tote bags LIVE in our efforts to expose the community to our love of printmaking and to fundraise for future collective events.  ($5 suggested donation per bag.)

Look for us from Noon to 5pm, on Myrtle Ave between Ryerson and Grand.

Welcome!

Time to sharpen the gouges, clean the screens, polish the plates, and sand the stones!  It's time to start school and print.

The Pressure Print Collective would like to welcome returning graduate students, incoming 1st years, and senior undergrads.  Thanks to our generous Pratt budget, we have many exciting events to look forward to this upcoming year: Fall and Spring Open Studios, the 2nd Annual Portfolio Exchange and Print Swap, and last but not least...The Southern Graphics Council Conference (held in Philly this year).

The aim of this blog is to keep everyone up-to-date on print events, both on campus and around the New York Area.  Stay turned for ways to get involved with the collective.

Again, welcome and happy printing!
