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. 
During July and August 2026, 9 local youth explored tactile printmaking techniques to interpret their world through art. Using linocut and monotype, they translated ideas, images, and materials that inspire them into their own forms of expressive mark-making. Each of their artworks will be featured in the Crescent Heights Mini Galleries in 2 consecutive exhibitions. Expressions in Print: Linocut is the first of these 2 exhibitions.

DATES: Saturday, October 24, 2026 COURSE SUMMARY: This beginner- level course introduces participants to the fundamentals of hand papermaking, from fibre preparation to forming and drying finished sheets. Working primarily with cotton pulp, students will learn the basic tools, materials, and techniques used to make paper by hand, including vat setup, mould and deckle use, sheet forming, couching, and drying. Emphasis is placed on understanding paper as a material through direct, hands-on experience. No prior experience is required, and the course is suitable for artists, printmakers, book artists, and anyone interested in learning how to make paper by hand. Decorative techniques such as laminating, shaped sheets, and inclusions will also be introduced, and participants are encouraged to bring found materials to experiment with. A basic Nepalese-style deckle box will be covered which allows for individual pulls of different coloured pulp, combinations of fibres, and the incorporation of found materials within a single sheet. Because papermaking is a wet process, participants should wear closed-toe shoes that can get wet and clothing that may get wet. Small amounts of water may be present on the floor, so participants are asked to move carefully to avoid slipping.

DATES: October 25 and November 1 COURSE SUMMARY: The reduction process is one way of introducing colour into the relief printing process without the necessity of having multiple blocks. Students will be instructed on ways of designing imagery for reduction printing, useful approaches to the carving process, the use of a registration jig, and finally the setting of the press and printing. Participants should leave the workshop with a small edition of reduction prints designed and printed by themselves as well as a good foundation in the technique to allow them to continue with their own personal explorations. Some prior experience with relief printmaking (linocut or woodcut) is an advantage to taking this workshop but is not a necessity.
