Printing Sessions: October 15 – 21, 2023
Youth MONOTHON: October 22, 2023
MONOTHON Auction & Party: November 11, 2023
Each year the Center for Contemporary Printmaking hosts MONOTHON: a two-part celebration of monotype printmaking and CCP’s largest fundraising effort. Now in its twenty-third year, MONOTHON kicks off October 15, opening our schedule to artists booking 5 hour intensive monotype printing sessions through October 21, as well as a Youth MONOTHON session on October 22. A selection of prints created during the printing sessions will then be included in our Silent Auction which will occur during the MONOTHON Auction & Party on November 11. This year we’re bringing the Auction & Party back home to CCP!
