The printmaking and paper arts area teaches you a collaborative, creative and civically-minded art practice. Housed across three printmaking studios, you will work with specialized faculty to learn the disciplines of traditional relief print, laser engraved relief print, contemporary digital printmaking, intaglio, lithography, serigraphy, monotype, letterpress, typography, papermaking, and book arts.
While you develop concepts and skills, you will be encouraged to survey and combine the various forms of printmaking as well as work cross-disciplinarily. We promote traditional and experimental print techniques while placing emphasis on art as a powerful mode of communication.
