Girls Garage protest + print portfolio
Portfolio of twelve 11×17 prints. All proceeds will be donated to the ACLU.
The Protest + Print class at Girls Garage is a venue for girls and gender-expansive youth to explore and express the complex personal and political issues that impact their daily lives through the medium of printmaking. This is a free after-school program for high school students, nearly all of whom identify as youth of color and or gender expansive. Over the past few years, we’ve spoken with youth who feel deeply confused and worried about the future, but also inspired and hopeful that they can be the change they want to see. Protest + Print is rooted in “art as activism,” using print-making as a tool to amplify students’ creative voices. Printmaking has been used historically and recently as an artistic tool for protest, activism and social justice, and this program continues that legacy.
