The Athenaeum Art Center welcomes all interested in being a part of the Print Day in May global celebration.

The event kicks off on Saturday May 3 2025 from 12:30-4:30PM

Local printmakers are encouraged and welcomed to come print their personal matrices.

As part of the Athenaeum Art Center’s community outreach efforts, printmaking demonstrations such as screen printing and relief printing and letterpress, will be offered to the general public led by Kelvin Lopez and friends.

To make things a little fun and exciting, we are setting a theme for the Print Day in May celebration at our space by providing free yellow paper. We will also be encouraging participants to use blue, violet, purple (analogous colors) inks for their prints.Are you up for the challenge?

See you then!

Mexican-American Printmaker based in Southern California. My personal cultural background, my love and adoration for nature, flora, fauna, and my love for printmaking all represent my printmaking style and creations that I call mixed media prints. I received a BFA degree with an emphasis in Printmaking from California State University, Long Beach. I also received a MFA degree with an emphasis in printmaking from Rhode Island School of Design. I currently work at Athenaeum Art Center in San Diego as a Print Studio Technician. We offer Letterpress, Intaglio/Relief, and Serigraphy and more at our space by providing classes, open studios/ access to use the studio, and other community filled events.
