Create a one-of-a-kind Kwanimals letterpress print with Arion Press! Drop in to hand-ink photopolymer printing plates made from Susanna Kwan’s eerie, humorous, and relatable black-and-white ink drawings, then pull your own print on a portable printing press—the same way prints have been made by hand for generations. Each participant will create a unique print to take home.
While you wait for your turn at the press or after making your print, take part in an informal discussion of Awake in the Floating City. Refreshments will be served.
