Letterpress for Writers: Poetry Broadsides and Beyond

March 5, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Letterpress for Writers: Poetry Broadsides and Beyond with Bryce Fredrick

Saturdays – March 5, 12, 19
2:00 PM – 5:00 PM
In-person only at Tent City Press, 333 West 4th Avenue, Anchorage
$190 Members | $230 Non-Members

This class takes place on more than one date (March 5, 12, & 19) but must be registered for as a single class.

Many writers of both prose and poetry find inspiration in visual imagery. The pairing of words and images into “broadsides” is part of a long tradition in the writing world. And one of the oldest and most time-honored methods for creating broadsides is the letterpress. In this three-week workshop, join artist and printmaker Bryce Fredrick at the Tent City Press studio in Anchorage to learn hands-on the craft of letterpress printing. Don’t miss this opportunity to broaden your creative horizons in a fun and supportive environment, and to create original broadsides of your own – just in time for National Poetry Month!

Bio: Bryce Nicolasa Fredrick is a printmaker, writer, performer, & artist that owns and manages the community studio space called Tent City Press located in downtown Anchorage! She has taught a variety of workshops through Tent City Press, the Anchorage Museum, Girdwood Fine Arts Camp, Boys and Girls Club, and the Anchorage School District. Bryce graduated in 2018 from the University of Alaska Anchorage with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Printmaking, and is passionate about teaching people the many ways in which one can make their ideas into artwork through the medium of print as well as getting people involved in their local arts communities.
