A/P is organizing, Local Imprint, a non-juried exhibition for A/P members to showcase their work... 
My maternal grandfather was a Mountie. This photo of him on horseback, dressed in his formal Canadian Mounted Police uniform, represents such an iconic symbol for Canada.... 
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. 
Giving ourselves the space to be soft and silly during these times is a radical act and deserves some attention! HOT 4 THE MOMENT will be taking over the Alberta Printmakers Main Gallery with “NOTICE ME!”, a printed and quilted construction site. THE FIX-ITS is a parody performance, and installation work assuming the characters of a multi-talented duo of contract workers who critique systems of oppression and misogyny within professional spaces through hard work, physical labor and community care. Getting to work as THE FIX-ITS required the proper OHS approved signage, designating spaces to be soft and silly with yourself. This installation is the accumulation of the FIX-ITS body of work and will consist of the quilted signage used in our FIX-ITS performances, our constructed light box art crate signs, screenprints, and textile work.

DATES: February 23, March 2 and 9, 2025 COURSE SUMMARY: Screen printing (or silkscreen) is a printmaking technique where layers of ink are pulled through a mesh screen to create a wonderfully detailed image, often with multiple layers of transparent ink interacting with one another. In this comprehensive workshop, students will gain an understanding of the processes involved in creating a screen print on paper within a professional printmaking studio and will leave with the knowledge and experience required to produce work independently.
