SUMMARY:Art Start: Woodblock Printing (10AF26)
DESCRIPTION:Taught by: Ashley Rehler \nWoodblock carving is one of the oldest forms of printmaking\, a relief method in which wood is carved away to create an image. In this class\, you will watch demonstrations of each step: creating an image\, transferring the image to a woodblock\, carving\, and hand-printing. Students then create their own woodblock\, carve it out\, and produce prints worthy of framing! No experience necessary; beginners and intermediates welcome. \nPlease note: All class supplies are provided. Prior to arrival\, we recommend that students consider a handful of ideas for their woodblock and print out a copy of the chosen image. Ideal imagery has bold shapes or lines to make carving easier. Woodblock dimensions are approximately 6×6 inches. Students will have about an hour and a half to carve their images. \nMaterials\nAll materials provided. \nRegistration Information\nRegistration for this program starts on Tuesday\, August 18\, at 10:00 am for MAG Members\, and Tuesday\, August 25\, at 10:00 am for Not-Yet-Members. Online registration ends on Wednesday\, November 11\, at 11:30 am. \nPrograms with inadequate enrollment are canceled one week before the first meeting. We will attempt to contact you via email to find an alternative program or to refund your registration fee. \nLearn more about classes in the Creative Workshop\, including information about parking and the refund and cancellation policies.

SUMMARY:Chasing Rainbows: How We Talk About Color
DESCRIPTION:Color is one of the most foundational experiences we have as humans—yet our understanding about what color is\, how we experience it\, and how to talk about it is a bit squishy. Is aqua blue or green (or neither)? Does that change when you put aqua next to a blue or green? And if it does change\, does that mean it’s still aqua? Science can provide answers—but what happens when the answers science gives us contradict our own experiences? Even artists who work with color all the time sometimes struggle with how to order\, describe\, and work with color. Is there a common language we can all use? \nJoin lexicographer and author Kory Stamper as she guides you through a kaleidoscopic journey through modern color science\, color psychology\, color naming and descriptions\, and our perceptions about color using artworks in the MAG collection. \nKory Stamper is an author and lexicographer who has spent near 30 years thinking (too deeply) about how to define the words that define us. In her 20 years as an editor at Merriam-Webster\, she defined everything from “blue plate special” to “god” and answered dictionary user questions on everything from what color “nude” really is to why it’s “toothpaste” and not “teethpaste.” She has written about her time as a dictionary writer in Word by Word: The Secret Life of Dictionaries (2017\, Pantheon). Her moderate obsession with color began during her time at Merriam-Webster\, and led to her second nonfiction book\, True Color: The Strange and Spectacular Quest to Define Color—from Azure to Zinc Pink (2026\, Knopf). \nLecture will be followed by a book signing in the Vanden Brul Pavilion until 8:30 pm. \n\nTo submit a request for ASL interpretation\, please email access@mag.rochester.edu at least two weeks before the program. \nAdvance registration is required for this free event. Capacity is limited. Registration closes on Tuesday\, November 10\, at 7:00 pm. \nFor questions or assistance\, please contact memberperks@mag.rochester.edu.
