SUMMARY:Intro to Intaglio (Etching)
DESCRIPTION:Why did artists like Francisco Goya\, Pablo Picasso\, Edgar Degas\, Käthe Kollwitz\, M. C. Escher\, and Rembrandt feel drawn to this rich and versatile process? \nEtching opens the door to endless creative possibilities. Its distinctive lines\, expressive range of mark-making\, and deeply tactile nature have fascinated artists for centuries. \nIn this one-day class\, we’ll dive into the essentials of etching. Students will learn how to prepare a copper plate with a hard ground and create their own line-based image. From there\, we’ll explore how to ink the plate and pull a finished print. By the end\, students will leave with both the skills and confidence to continue exploring this compelling medium. \nWHEN: November 8th\, 10-4pm \nWHERE: Myrtle Press inside Verge \nAbout the Instructors \nHoward Levine has been an active printmaker for the past fifty-seven years. Howard taught printmaking and drawing for Sierra College for almost twenty-five years. At Carriage House Press\, Grass Valley he had students engaged in all processes: intaglio\, relief\, litho and monotype for over 45 years. Howard has a M.A. from San Francisco State with an emphasis on printmaking\, mainly lithography. He also is a painter\, drawer and for-site artist. After dismantling his long time studio and gallery in Grass Valley\, CA. he and his wife moved to Sacramento and joined Myrtle Press. \nChanel Mace is a geometric abstract artist and printmaker whose work explores the intersection of organic sensation and structured space. Originally from Sacramento\, Chanel holds a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and studied at Central Saint Martins in London. She completed a yearlong postgraduate residency at The Wrocław School of Printmaking in Poland. She then spent eight years living and working in Australia. While in Sydney\, she was deeply involved in the local printmaking community\, working out of The Workshop Arts Centre in Willoughby and serving as acting Secretary of the North Sydney Printmakers Association. After a decade abroad\, she returned home to Sacramento\, where she now works out of Myrtle Press and is a member of the California Society of Printmakers.@chanelmaceart\, www.chanelmace.com

SUMMARY:Teen Cyanotype Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In this class\, you will leave with five to seven unique cyanotype prints as well as enough knowledge of the process to be able to explore further independently. You will be able to print using physical objects\, or you can submit one of your own photograph from your personal camera roll to be able to make unique photorealistic prints. You won’t need any background knowledge to get something out of this class\, the instructor is an experienced high school art teacher that has taught this process to beginners for over six years.\nAlthough the steps to Cyanotype will be procedural\, each student’s creative ideas will be supported so that they walk away with something truly unique and personalized to them.\n**For this class we will be using paper\, but if you would like to try the technique on cloth you may bring ONE item- your own light-colored t-shirt\, tote-bag\, or scrap of cloth. If bringing a scrap make sure it’s at least 8.5×11. The cloth items do not have to be new\, cyanotype is great for upcycling!\n***If you want to submit ONE photograph to use during the class\, an email will be sent a week before class begins to submit that photo.\nAutomatic discounts applied for siblings. Reach out to Chanel at education@vergecontemporary.org regarding potential scholarship opportunities!\nWHEN: Monday Nov 23rd 2026 \nTIME: 3:30pm-6pm \nWHERE: Verge Center for the Arts \nWHO: Must be enrolled or High School age – Age 14-18 years old
