RISO 101 with Anna Tararova
Saturday, November 16, 11am-3pm
$118 (members: $89)
Learn the basics of Risography on “Lizzo the Rizo”, Zygote’s RZ Risograph machine. Participants will make collages to print with - you can bring your own collage material such as magazines, drawings, and photos. If you need to print something out, be sure to arrive 15 minutes early to use our printer. Each artist will make a two color print using our RZ 390ui Riso Duplicator. You will also learn basic Riso mechanics and skills so you can work independently with Lizzo during Open Studio. No experience required!

Print History Lecture
Print History Lecture
Want to learn about the LGBTQ+ printmakers that gathered in Cape Cod in the early 20th century? Join us at the LGBT Center @lgbtcleveland for a FREE Print History Lecture on Friday, November 8, 5:30-7 - Presented by Brittany M. Hudak @marielbritt, Art Historian, and Senior Programming Manager at Zygote Press.
Provincetown was a destination for avant-garde artists fleeing the turmoil of World War I and had been a safe haven for LGBTQ+ artists since the mid-nineteenth-century. Printmaking as an art form is inherently collaborative, and was used as a conduit for exchange between queer women artists, in Provincetown and beyond.
