CAC’s Steamroller Printmaking Event is Sept. 21 

Posted

CREEDE - The Creede Arts Council is hosting its 5th annual Steamroller Printmaking Event from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Sept. 21. This is an outdoor printmaking event held in Creede.  

Artists will have created and carved wooden boards with their own original designs. The day of the event, the boards are inked by hand and placed on the street with paper placed over the boards. Then, a Steamroller (roadbed compactor) will roll over them, pressing the paper onto the board. The resulting outcome is an original fine art print!  

Each artist’s print will be available for purchase during and after the event, with 50% of profits returning to nonprofit missions of the Creede Arts Council. Local artists participating will include Colleen DeSanto, Jody Stroh, and Amanda Charlton Hurley.
