WPA moves to new studio
The Women Printmakers of Austin are moving to a new studio in the Pump Project Art Complex. The lively East Austin arts space, a former 1950s warehouse, is already home to the working studios and galleries of emerging artists and craftspeople.
WPA will join the Pump Project crowd, opening a printmaking studio for its members and non-members.
Saturday, Aug. 29 beginning at 6:20 p.m., the WPA will be hosting a studio baby shower to raise money and supplies for the new facility. Read the registry of needed suppliess.
WPA will stage its annual exhibit, ‘Multiple Originals’ in the Pump Project gallery Sept. 26-Oct. 17.
See womenprintmakers.com for more information.
Pump Project will be a busy scene Saturday night. Also going on starting at 7 p.m. is the reception of ‘Anxiety,’ Cantanker magazine’s third annual summer catalog and exhibition. Featuring the work of 19 artists from Texas and beyond, ‘Anxiety’ was selected by Austin Museum of Art’s assistant curator Andrea Mellard.
