First Friday: Print the Parks—Screenprinting with Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop

Join Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop at Poster House for a hands-on screenprinting workshop inspired by Dorothy Waugh’s Lure of the National Parks poster, currently on view in the museum’s exhibition Blazing a Trail: Dorothy Waugh’s National Parks Posters. Participants will learn the basics of screenprinting and take home their own two-color print celebrating the beauty of America’s natural landscapes.

No experience necessary—just bring your creativity and curiosity!

Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop (RBPMW) is a dynamic community print studio that honors the legacy of pioneering artist and master printmaker Robert Blackburn (1920–2003). Founded in a spirit of inclusivity and artistic excellence, RBPMW provides a supportive, collaborative space for artists of all backgrounds to explore and expand their printmaking practice.

This program is presented by Poster House’s CMYK Council, the museum’s BIPOC advisory board that works to ensure the museum is accessible to communities of color.
