Upcoming Workshops

On the Wall Workshop: Drypoint Printmaking

Tuesday, March 17, 5:30 - 7 p.m.

Saturday, March 21, 2 - 4 p.m.

Drypoint is a simplified printmaking technique that allows artists to create rich, expressive prints without the use of acids or complicated equipment. Instead, lines are scratched directly into a plate using a sharp tool. Ink is then rubbed into those lines and transferred onto paper using a press.

In this workshop, participants will explore drypoint through hands-on experimentation, creating images inspired by the printmaking works on view in the galleries. We’ll focus on line, texture, and mark-making, embracing the unique, slightly imperfect qualities that make each drypoint print one of a kind.

Creative Calm: Art of Mindfulness

Thursday, March 19, 5:30 - 7 p.m.

Creative Calm is a slow, reflective art workshop centered on process art, an approach to making where exploration, experimentation, and curiosity matter more than a finished result. Instead of following step-by-step instructions, participants are encouraged to play with materials, respond to their instincts, and see where the process leads.

Essential Art Studio: Linocuts

Tuesday, March 24 & 31, 5:30 - 7 p.m.

Linocut is a relief printmaking technique in which an image is carved into a sheet of linoleum. The carved-away areas remain unprinted, while the raised surface is inked and pressed onto paper to create bold, graphic images.

In the first session, participants will design and carve their linoleum plates, drawing inspiration from the printmaking works on view in the galleries. The second session will focus on printing, experimenting with ink, pressure, and paper to produce a small series of at least three prints from each plate.

This two-part workshop emphasizes thoughtful planning, hands-on making, and the unique variations that occur from print to print. Open to all ages and experience levels though younger ages may need aid from an adult with the carving.

Lifelong Learning Center at Midwestern State University

The Lifelong Learning Center at Midwestern State University is a member-driven community of learners dedicated to inspiring and enriching the minds and spirits of Texomans over the age of 50.

Learners from all backgrounds and education levels are welcome to be members of the Lifelong Learning Center. Our classes are instructed by qualified individuals in our community as well as current and retired MSU faculty. These noncredit classes are divided into two academic terms (fall/spring) and explore topics in the fields of health, history, culture, science, religion, law, and the arts.

A Lifelong Learning Center is not only about taking classes. It’s also about developing a community of older adults who want to socialize and discuss intellectual topics with peers outside of the classroom. We are incredibly fortunate to have a wonderful home that MSU has provided for us at 2 Eureka Circle where our members can gather. Here, we strive to build a thriving community of lifelong learners.
