Norwich Free Academy students visited the print shop on December 6th, 2018 and we had a great time working with them on a plastic plate intaglio project.

 

Students from West Hill High School in Stamford joined Counterproof Press in the fall of 2018 for a printmaking workshop in the studio.   For more photos, please visit our Facebook page.

As part of a statewide commemoration of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights’ (UDHR) 70th anniversary, renowned visiting artist and activist Meredith Stern was invited by University of Connecticut Human Rights Institute to give a presentation on art collaboration with social justice movements. She also presented a stencil-printing poster and sign-making workshop in collaboration with Counterproof Press.  Students from the School of Fine Arts, the Human Rights Program and others created signs to bring to the #StandUp4HumanRightsCT rally that took place the following day on the steps of the Hartford Capitol building.  To view more photos, visit our Facebook page.

This fall, we welcomed students from Classical Magnet High School and St. Bernard High School to the shop for workshops on printmaking techniques.
