This workshop introduces participants to various lithographic processes and techniques commonly utilized by artists and studios, both historical and contemporary. Hands-on techniques covered in the workshop include stone lithography (additive and reductive), plate lithography, pronto plate (color lithography), transfer lithography, and photolithography. The curriculum consists primarily of hands-on printing activities at Second State Press but will also include lectures, close-looking at prints, and group discussions in the Philadelphia Museum of Art's Study Room and Paper Conservation Lab. 

The instructors of the hands-on portion are a conservator (Christina Taylor) and artist/lithographer (Chris Wallace), and this combination offers a special opportunity to merge the perspectives of museum and art professionals.
