In 2021 and 2022, Campana Studios received a City of Carlsbad community art grant for a series of Printmaking Workshops. These workshops were held at the Gowan Room at the Carlsbad library and led by local Teaching Artists who work in a variety of printmaking bookbinding, and paper arts processes. The workshops were well attended and participants learned basic techniques for linoleum relief printmaking and bookbinding. This year we are expanding into fabric printing, drypoint etching, and cyanotype. The program was successful based on participant feedback, our ability to work within the budget, and the great support provided by Cultural Arts and Library staff. Project Distinction: What makes this project distinctive? Campana Studios' Teaching Artists represent the highest level of professionalism and experience in their disciplines. The majority of our staff have M.F.A. in their respective fields and all have undergraduate degrees in visual arts. Additionally, three of our Teaching Artists have shown their work in the Cannon Gallery. Our project offers visual arts programming and is one of the few 2021-2022 awardees to provide visual arts programming for Adults in Carlsbad. Project Goals: What are the goals (outputs and/or outcomes) of the project? How will you measure your goals? The primary goal of our project is to introduce participants to a variety of printmaking techiniques and bookbinding, as well as further develop the skills of participants with prior experience. The secondary goal is building community through making art together. We will measure the outcome of our primary goal by reviewing the artwork completed by participants and by receiving direct feedback. We will see the outcome of our secondary goal through future participation in Campana Studios events. Target Population: Who is your target population and why? How will you reach them? Our target population for this project is adult residents, ages 25-55, of Carlsbad, as we see the need for Visual Arts Programming for this demographic. Younger residents have access to visual arts programming through the school districts and community college system. Seniors in Carlsbad have robust programming. In the Visual Arts, high-quality adult programming can introduce new techniques and awaken creativity. Additionally, it is imperative to Campana Studios that our workshops are available to all that wish to participate, regardless of financial means, ability, or language barriers. To this end, our workshops are held in accessible spaces, such as the Gowan Meeting Room, and activities can be modified based on abilities. Our registration fees are donation-based, providing participants with multiple options for pricing depending upon DocuSign Envelope ID: D20F1980-5879-49D9-9810-695CDD842976 Jay Bell Campana Studios Printed On: 21 March 2023 Fiscal Year 2023-24: Arts Projects for Arts Organizations 7 their financial means. Additionally, our program coordinator, Taylor Chapin, is working diligently on our current program to expand outreach and would continue to do so on any future programming. We will reach this demographic through social media, Eventbrite invitations, word of mouth, email campaigns and through City email newsletters/announcements.
