Free Family Day.

TUESDAY, MAY 15

Printmaking Workshop for Adults. If you like to be cutting-edge, try making linocuts with “Artists in Action” Ashley Taylor and Tyler Owens, UCF Print Collective. James Siena’s Sequence I, 2009 - whose visual algorithims seem to go on infinitely, but then reverse, unwinding back to the beginning - is the inspiration for looking at patterns in a new way. Join this team to explore sequence and patterns in mind-expanding ways.While you create your own art prints, enjoy coffee and pastries. No previous experience is necessary. 9-10:30 a.m. Reservations required. Cost $12 per person, MMAA members $8. 407.246.4278.

SATURDAY-SUNDAY, MAY 19-20 and MAY 26-27

TUESDAY, JUNE 5

Printmaking Workshop for Adults. Making monotypes is the specialty of “Artists in Action” Michelle Garay and Anna Cruz, UCF Print Collective. Using Nathan Redwood’s Like Air, 2010, Michelle will show you how to manipulate printer’s ink so that it looks like brushstrokes … and other tricks of the trade that make unique, one-of-a-kind prints. You’ll feel lighter than air at the end! While you create your own art prints, enjoy wine and cheese. No experience necessary. 6-7:30 p.m. Reservations required. Cost $12 per person, MMAA members $8. 407.246.4278.

TUESDAY, JULY 10

Printmaking Workshop for Adults. Go to press (letterpress, that is!) with “Artists in Action” Ashley Taylor and Tyler Owens, UCF Print Collective. You’ll use photographic processes to learn all about the letterpress. Ink and hand-print your own bookmarks, cards and who knows what else(!) on a 1950s Vandercook press in the museum's Printmaking Studio. We’ll be inspired by books from the exhibition: William Wiley and Michael Harmon’s Pilgrim’s Process, 1997, as well as Ke Francis and Robert Rivers’ Hunting the Crested Snipe, 1996. Come on out, unwind, and get your hands dirty. Be careful though, once you use the letterpress, you can never go back! While you create your own art prints, enjoy coffee and pastries. No previous experience necessary. 9-10:30 a.m. Reservations required. Cost $12 per person, MMAA members $8. 407.246.4278.

TUESDAY, JULY 17

Printmaking Workshop for Adults.

You’ll go home with four remarkable prints that no one will suspect were made from gauze, hemp, tulle and feathers! While you create your own art prints, enjoy coffee and pastries. No previous experience necessary. 9-10:30 a.m. Reservations required. Cost $12 per person, MMAA members $8. 407.246.4278.
