ok, so the YELL conference is in 17 days, we need to start getting the example stencil, screen and linoleum block ready for the workshop. What designs should we do? Who's gonna do what? I am willing to help with one of the examples.

here are the notes from last week on the workshop:

1. PIY Workshop Notes

- structure:

1) Introduce Misled Youth and the importance of self-education

2) Talk about the importance of printing

3) Hands-on printing

4) Questions and answers

- maybe we could have an airbrush for stencils? Ceecee said she had one.

- we should have handout packets. Ceecee offered to bring linoleum handouts

- Sarah offered write the agenda and to bring craft paper and a bucket to wash screens and stuff. Nick offered to bring ink.

- the designs we make for people to print at the workshop should be focused on printmaking, self-empowerment, or Misled Youth. Most everyone volunteered to make designs.

- we wanted to ask YELL when we need a workshop description, and if we can help with organizing the conference in any way but nobody from YELL was there.

let's start brainstorming some designs!

designs

the linoleum pieces we have are both 9 by 12 so maybe everyone interested should draw a 9 by 12 design, I don't mind cutting it out because I cut lino pretty fast.

how big of a screen do we want? same goes for the stencil, we should talk about that on thursday.

workshop description

You can send the workshop description at as soon as possible, we've been asking other workshop facilitators to send in theirs but we're not really stressing it until we complete the design for the program. It would really help out if we get it within the next week though.
