Free Ink Days!
Bugs!: Free Family Day at the MIA
April 11, 11:00 am – 4:30 pm
Highpoint will be traveling to the Minneapolis Institute of Arts for the day on April 11th. Visitors will be able to print from woodblocks by hand to take home. Also, take a peek at guest woodblock artist Jeanne McGee hard at work. Get ready for creepy crawlers — the day will be all about bugs!
It’s Spring!
May 15, 1:00 – 5:00 pm
Celebrate the advent of spring with children’s book illustrator and artist Julie Jersild Roth, author of Knitting Nell.
Four times a year Highpoint invites the community to an afternoon of hands-on printmaking and creative fun. At these free, public events visitors of all ages make prints to take home. Since 2002 Free Ink Days have been an opportunity for the community to create unique, hand made artwork. All materials for the planned activity are supplied by Highpoint- just bring your creativity and be ready to get inky! Past activities have included monoprinting and relief block printing.
Now a cornerstone of Highpoint’s community programs, Free Ink Days venture out into the community to local events such as the Northside Art Collective’s annual Spring Art Party in North Minneapolis. Would you or your workplace like to sponsor a Free Ink Day?
