BIG INK at Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts, Annapolis, MD

BIG INK, a nationally recognized print arts organization, is coming to Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts in 2019.  Maryland Hall has invited BIG INK to host a two-day event where prints will be pulled from large-scale woodblock plates carved ahead of time by sixteen artists.  We are seeking image proposals from emerging, mid-career, and established visual artists who would like to carve a woodblock, at least 24" x 36" in dimension, to print at the event.  No prior printmaking experience is required. Any artist that has an interest in print media and wants to achieve a deeper understanding of woodblock carving is welcome to apply.
