The Ink Shop Printmaking Center & Olive Branch Press An artist run printmaking facility and gallery providing workshops, internships and studio access for the Ithaca public.

The Ink Shop Printmaking Center is a not-for-profit that promotes fine art prints, works on paper, and artists’ books. Founded in 1999, The Ink Shop is operated by artists who offer a professional, open access, community-based printmaking facility and gallery. As a regional resource for printmaking, The Ink Shop offers five program areas: exhibitions related to prints and works on paper including

artist books, a “Talk Print” series in which artists present and discuss their work and techniques, Olive Branch Press, which publishes invited artists’ prints or artist books, workshops for established and emerging artists, and a year-round studio facility for printmakers and bookmakers. Each year the Ink Shop organizes about six exhibitions in-house. These include group shows, invitationals, one or two person shows, and membership shows that explore contemporary print and book arts. Members are given the opportunity to participate in an annual membership show, and encouraged to exhibit with The Ink Shop at other venues.

Parent & Child Monotype with Stencils | Craig Mains
Thursday 3/19 1 PM –3pm

This workshop is a fun family printmaking class. We will be painting stenciled mylar plates with water-based inks to create subtle and intricate monotype prints. This process allows you to paint quickly onto the mylar plates, then transfer the ink to dampened paper using an etching press. You will learn about ghost images, which can achieve wonderful effects with immediate results. This technique is completely non-toxic and the fee covers participation for 1 parent and elementary school age child.
