According to an invitation from the National Museum, the Women in Art Printmaking Workshop is a one-day affair, with Ambie Abano and Yasmin Doctor of the Association of Pinoy printmakers (AP) teaching the basics of printmaking.

 

It encouraged the public to learn the basics in Printmaking at the National Museum in a one-day workshop on May 24 (Thursday). “Create simple monotype prints and rubbercut prints with color enhancements as demonstrated by notable women printmakers,” it added.

Aside from the lecture, the National Museum would provide meals, workshop materials, and a walk-through of the Shifts in Context exhibition.
