Description: Artist Katie Blundell created two days of drop-in print-making as a participative activity in partnership with her solo exhibition ‘Going to Seed’ at Franklin Art Gallery in October 2024. The arts broker grant enabled the interactive activity, demonstrating techniques to visitors, with everyone taking home a print of their own created through pressing organic materials through a printing press. All ages participated, with various levels of competence, building appreciation for the art making process and the environment.
Outcomes : • open access to art activities • introduction and appreciation of printmaking techniques • deepening appreciation of visual arts as a response to environmental issues
