Missoula Villages + Open AIR Workshop with Bev Beck Glueckert
Printmaking: Exploring the Collagraph

We've partnered with Open AIR to offer a free workshop as a part of our rolling series of Missoula Villages launch events. Come make art then stay to enjoy refreshments and chat with Village founding volunteers and MAS staff about how the new neighbor-powered network can help older Missoulians age well at home.

About the workshop:
Learn to create and print a fun collagraph plate using simple and recycled textural collage materials. Plenty of experimentation is involved, and encouraged. Participants can create an edition of prints, or variety of singles. There are endless possibilities!

All materials and supplies are included. Attendees are welcome to come with their own designs and ideas but no preparation is necessary. The workshop is free, but a suggested donation for Open AIR is appreciated!

Registration is required and will close 24 hours before the workshop begins.

Cancellation: If you are registered and cannot attend the workshop, please let us know at susie@openairmt.org so we can open the spot for another participant!
