Community Print at Waterfall Arts

What is Community Print? These are 3-hour blocks of time with a studio artist present to give you a chance to start a new printmaking project or finish something you have started. They are held in the Kennedy Press, our state-of the-art printmaking studio where we have all the equipment you need to drop in and work independently on your printmaking project, share ideas, develop techniques, experiment, and help us build a lively community around printmaking! Community Print is great for folks who have taken one of our classes and want more time at the press, they are great for folks who learned printmaking in college but their skills have lapsed and they need a refresher, they are great for folks who have printmaking experience but lack the equipment to make prints at home. Join us and feel the power of printmaking!

Drop-in rates are $20 for a 3-hour session. Students currently enrolled in Waterfall Printmaking classes can purchase tickets for $10—a 50% discount! Maximum 5 artists during Community Print.

About the Studio Monitor:

MF Morison hails from the west coast where she was primarily known as a metalsmith, apprenticing under Stieg Gusterman (Georgetown, CO) and Thomas Schlicting (Amsterdam). Using acid etch in many processes, she continued to explore this medium, resulting in attending S.F. Art Institute, studying printmaking under the tutelage of Michi Itami. While in SF, MF also worked out of U.C. Berkeley Open Studio and Fort Mason Print Department. Upon her arrival to Midcoast Maine, MF shelved printmaking for a time until she became aware of the Waterfall Arts Printmaking Studio. Since then she has been consistently enthralled and engaged with printmaking, primarily working with copper plate intaglio etching with use of embossment and chine colle.
