Peoria Art Guild Print Studio

At the Peoria Art Guild, there is a printmaking studio that offers wonderful opportunities. This studio is perfect for anyone who wants to improve their printmaking skills. We welcome beginner and novice artists of all career and artistic backgrounds in creation of new work. Students, artists, teachers, and the general public engage in printmaking, many of them for the first time, through the printshop’s opportunities.

Our studio has the tools and materials for anyone to create relief, drypoint, and letterpress prints. Some of our resources include etching presses, a Vandercook IV proofing press, paper, ink, and more. Classes and studio hours offer opportunities to study and explore printmaking in depth, and hands-on. For any questions about our printmaking facilities, classes, etc. please reach out to the contact below.
