Gelli printing is a printing process that uses acrylic paint and a soft plate.
All community members participating will be provided the opportunity to play, create, and learn together. All supplies will be provided—while community members are also strongly encouraged to bring textured items, stencils, or inkjet-printed images that remind and tell them stories of perseverance.
Facilitated by Andrea Munoz of Mountain Association. Andrea joined the Mountain Association in 2024. Originally from Santiago, Chile, she immigrated to New York City in 2005 where she found a new career as a community educator with Cornell University Cooperative Extension in Jamaica Queens. In this position, she worked in a melting pot of cultures and brought this experience with her when she moved to Eastern Kentucky with her family in 2012. Prior to coming to the Mountain Association, Andrea worked for Kentucky State University in sustainable agriculture and nutrition education. She also has gained extensive experience as a Spanish-English interpreter throughout her career. In her position as Outreach Specialist at the Mountain Association, Andrea focuses on getting the word out about Mountain Association’s programs and other resources. She cares deeply about Eastern Kentucky communities and the culture and sense of belonging here. She also loves to travel, meet new people and learn about their stories. In her free time, Andrea enjoys photographing nature, painting with watercolors and listening to Latin music. She also serves on the board of the New Americans Initiative.
