If you’re ready to dip your toes into the storytelling experience or brush off skills you haven’t exercised in some time, start here. Instructor Akwi Nji launches the series with a generative workshop focused on the foundational steps of mining for and crafting a personal narrative story to be told on stage. 

In this three hour generative workshop, participants will engage in exercises to help identify a story and then draft their own 3- to 5-minute personal story utilizing Akwi’s suggested “key elements” to engage a live audience.

This gelatin printing is an amazing and accessible printing technique that once the basics are understood, offers endless possibilities. The results are immediate and each print you pull is one of a kind. You will produce several prints, some that will be frame ready and others that can be developed further.

This class will discuss graphic design requirements for press settings as well as elements of great designs for cover and interior work. Learn what you need to create the work yourself or learn how to find the people you need.
