Print(ed) Word

Calgary Central Library 800 3rd Street SE, Calgary

Print(ed) Word is a collection of artist books that were created through pairing 12 local writers with 12 local print-artists who collaborated in reimagining existing texts into hand-made book forms. 

This project was led by A/P and Loft 112 with funding support from Canada Council for the Arts. The permanent installation in Calgary's Central Library was made possible through the support of Calgary Public Library, Calgary Public Library Foundation, and the J K L MacLachlan Family Foundation.

All is Bright: Cyanotype Night

A/P Studio 4025 4th Street SE, Calgary

DATE: December 11 (single day event)
TIME: 6:00-9:00pm

Create a gift or keep it for yourself! Come design and expose your own beautiful cyanotype prints!

Cyanotype is a photography method that involves laying an objects, drawings, or photo negatives on a surface coated with a solution of iron salts before exposing it to UV light and washing with water to create stunning white and Prussian blue images. With the help of AP staff, we will direct how you can use your own drawings, photographs, or small, soft, objects to create images on paper with the best results. You will participate in all the steps and will leave with two 4x5" prints!

No Experience Needed!!!

Come carve your own greeting card design and have it printed on the letterpress! Not only will you be able to take a set of your own home, but you will also do an exchange with the other participants to leave with a variety of cards! AP staff will help direct the basics of linocut carving to help you achieve the best results. Then you will be able to pull the prints off the letterpress with the assistance of staff. All cards will be printed in GOLD and possibly a second colour.
