Thursday - Sunday: 12pm - 7pm

Developed by ITS-IN-SCOPE and housed at Legacy Library, the People’s Propaganda Printmaking Studio is an experimental public arts studio built to equip everyday folks with the tools and know-how to produce and disseminate their own propaganda. This space invites participants into an ethos of self-determination and post-perfect practice through screen-printing and linocut block printing workshops. The single-color screen-printing press, flash dryer, and a design archive of 30 screens are a fixture in the rear of the library that offers guests the opportunity to create customized adornments out of existing clothing items - affirming both their creative capacity and our collective history through printmaking.

Community who’ve participated in past open studios are welcomed to utilize our single-color screen-printing press during regular library hours by bringing their own cotton garments (t-shirt, tote bag, hoodie, etc) and selecting an available design at $10 per print. If you’ve yet to participate in an open studio look out for upcoming workshops via our newsletter or instagram, and feel free to reach out and request a 1-on-1 or group workshop via email.
