BLOCK OUT

Print. Party. Repeat.

A Summer Fundraiser & Block Party in support of Community and Art

Make sure you save the date for SNAP‘s Annual Summer Fundraiser. On June 22nd, SNAP is partnering with Elm Café to bring the community together for a good old Block Party. This art party is a fundraising event for SNAP and will feature unique hand printed goods for sale and silent auction, killer barbequed grub served up Elm Café style, perfectly chilled beer from Yellowhead Brewery and exciting print on demand activities, including Steam Roller printing – we’re taking art into the street!

An array of 4×8’ hand carved woodblocks will be rolled up, and rolled over to print enormous sized prints. These prints will be available for sale along with print on demand t-shirts, tote bags & other garments. Choose your design, size and colour and get it printed right in front of your eyes! Designs from local artists will be featured and are sure to please and amaze.

Along with these printing activities will be a silent auction of locally designed and printed goods from a diverse and talented group of artists. Among the auction items will be fine art prints, hand made house wares, handbags, aprons and more.

This event is going to be an amazing start off to summer. Everyone is invited to attend and take part in the day’s events. Your chance to Print. Party. Repeat. is at Block Out! June 22nd only at SNAP’s Printshop.

Weekend Workshops

SNAP is pleased to present four exciting workshops to keep your creative juices flowing as the summer sun keeps beaming. Each class is a great way to get a taste of printmaking, or expand your own creative practice. Register for your choice of 1 or 2 day workshops and come away with expanded knowledge of printing. Classes include, Lino Relief printing, Silkscreen, Monotype printing and a Drawing and printing from nature class. For more information on the classes visit our education page.

SNAP OPEN STUDIO

Twice a month SNAP holds an Open Studio where printers who would like to expand their printing skills can come and work on projects for only $15. A knowledgable technician will be on hand to assist individuals. This is a great transition from SNAP student to SNAP renter. For more information visit our open studio page.
