In this 8-week Creative Aging studio course, we invite you to explore self-portraiture as a creative practice rather than focusing on making a perfect likeness. Beginning with photography and moving into several printmaking approaches, participants will explore ways to represent themselves beyond the usual smiling snapshot.
Working in a small group, participants will translate selected photographs into expressive prints using drypoint etching and monoprint techniques on an intaglio press. The course also includes chine collé, collage, and mark-making. Emphasis is on experimentation, curiosity, and play. No prior printmaking or art experience is required. The course concludes with a culminating exhibit of participant work. The course is designed for older adults, age 55+, and is limited to 8 participants.

IMPORTANT: This 8-week course builds on itself and is not structured to be a drop-in course. Please be advised that participants are expected to attend all sessions to the best of their ability.

Thank you to Montana Arts Council for supporting this program!
