Learn Ways to Incorporate Literacy into the Art Classroom!
Join the Visual Art Educators of Lenawee (VAEL) for a day of printmaking at the Adrian Center for the Arts Letterpress studio!
The day will begin with English teacher, Kris Gedeon, for a group creative writing process. Then Kristine Williman, artist/designer, will explain the history of letterpress as participants create a textual design on the Vandercook press. Participants will develop their own printed backgrounds using textures and stencils, then will send their final prints through the press for unique broadsides.
Attendees will also experiment with other methods to get a similar result that can be used in the classroom. The day will wrap up with a discussion about art, Common Core standards and how to talk to your administrators.
