Printmaking

Facilities

The printshop is located on the second floor of our new Black Family Visual Arts Center. The facility holds several different printing presses - including one electric press - an acid bath room for etching plates, a spray booth, and a lithography station. Some classes may also use the UV station for creating solar plates, or incorporate printing press elements from the Dartmouth Book Arts Workshop. The supplementary course fee covers paper, ink, plexiglass for monotypes, and, depending on the course, copper and zinc plates, wood, linoleum, or limestone slabs.
