What a great day! Over 100 artists, from Canada, the US, Australia, Argentina, as well as the Monterey Bay area, printed this year. Lucky MPC printmaker Galen got to make prints while on a soujourn in Greece. Welcome to Taller de Artes Plasticas/Devoto-Argentina joining us. Keep checking back as we will post photos as we receive them. Keep printing and keep reaching for the stars.

Hello Printmakers,
On Saturday May 7 (first Saturday in May), printmakers from around the globe will be doing what they love most-PRINTING!!!!
This is the 5th International Print Day in May, begun by MPC Printmakers in Monterey, California.
Please join us for this heady and wonderful experience. Do what you love to do, and know that art pals far and wide will be doing it with you. Imagine the feeling of connection, and the pure FUN of it!!!
To participate, all you have to do is print anything, anywhere, sometime between midnight and midnight on May 7, 2011.
To make it an even richer experience for all involved, there are a few things you can do:
1. Let us know in advance where you plan to print, and with whom
2. Let us know if you have room to host anyone
3. Send a message or messages to our blog:
https://printdayinmay.wordpress.com/
An “intention to print, and/or an “I’m printing today-here are some pictures”, etc., goes a long way to creating community.
Print with us, blog with us.
Oh happy day!!!!!!
I think it’s safe to say that everyone had a Fantabulous Print Day in May 2010! Thanks to everyone who participated and shared studios, food and good times. Be sure to take a gander at all the comments posted here. And check out (to the right) 2010 Printmakers Pages.
As I get through the inordinate number of emails and photos, I will get everything posted… it may take a couple of days. Keep sending photos and summaries (reduced jpegs) to rightfd@earthlink.net
Make sure you tell me who you are so I can create a page for you!
Congratulations to all!
In fact, it was already here in Australia (check out Printing Down Under to the right under 2010 Printmakers). What fun!
So, don’t hesitate… get rolling, get inking and have a great day printing.We want to hear all about it. Post a comment! Send Robynn Smith (robynn@cruzio.com) or Jennifer Anderson (rightfd@earthlink.net) a summary of your day (we’ll make you a page)
Don’t forget to take pictures and send them along to us (rightfd@earthlink.net — jpegs are best, and be sure to reduce them!)
International Print Day is almost here… close to 100 prinmakers are on board for a Print Day in May!
