Overcoming Otherness: Screenprinting Workshop with Azul Baez

Join Azul Baez on June 17th and June 24th for a two-part screenprinting workshop at Sur Gallery!

The first session will focus on designing an image in response to guided discussions of otherness and allyship. Participants may draw inspiration from the artworks within the exhibition Overcoming Otherness, or produce unique images of their own. The second session will focus on the production the participant's design onto their textile of choice, or a provided tote bag to then bring home!

Saturday, June 17, noon-2pm

Saturday, June 24, noon-2pm

Please note that participants must attend both sessions to bring home finished product.

This workshop is presented by Mabelle Arts through Sur Gallery.

Originally from Mexico, AZUL BAEZ is a community builder and arts administrator. She aspires to create spaces that imagine fuller personal and collective possibilities. Her educational background in arts education and community engagement allow her to develop curatorial and educational projects that are both collaborative and meaningful.

MABELLEarts brings people together across real and perceived differences to do something together. They prioritise doing over talking and focus on fun and creative projects with tangible impacts, including economic opportunities for the people who take part.
