South Street Print Fest
Steamroller Printmaking and Cyanotypes at the KIA
The KIA is hosting a Steamroller Printmaking and Cyanotype day!
Mark your calendars! On Saturday, Sept 26, the KIA will host a day-long outdoor event honoring the disciplines of photography and printmaking from 10am-3pm. Celebrate the 19th-century cameraless photographic printing process of cyanotype in honor of World Cyanotype Day or experience how vibrant, large-scale prints from relief carvings are produced using an asphalt roller.
To support this exciting day, KNAS is offering two mini workshops, one on Saturday, June 20 to prepare for the onsite, large-scale relief carving. Registration for this workshop can be found here.
The other workshop will occur immediately following the event on Sunday, Sept 27 to handcolor your cyanotypes. Registration for this workshop can be found here.
If you are an advanced community printmaker, plan to carve your block independently, and are only interested in arriving on Sept 26 to produce one print using the asphalt roller, you may sign-up for a timeslot. Times will be reserved on a first-come, first-served basis. To participate, please complete this form, be prepared to carve your block independently, and plan to bring it to and from the site. Your block must be 3' wide and between 2' to 6' long. More information regarding the event and time reservation confirmations will be shared with registered community printmakers as the event gets closer.
