Art Talk – Northern Renaissance Printmaking
February 12, 2026 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Free
Have you ever wondered how news got around during the Renaissance? Did they draw or paint all those pictures by hand like Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel?
The Northern Renaissance brought about the first books published with movable type rather than laboriously handwritten texts. An innovation that made mass-market paperbacks possible hundreds of years later. What would libraries be without the invention of the printing press? We can hardly stand to think about it!
We have a lot of questions about the origins of print and printmaking, we bet you do too!. So we asked Hutchinson Community College to come back and talk about it! Professor Kim Ivancovich will lead the discussion as we dive into the earliest days of printmaking and early technological invention. During the program, you’ll get to experience printmaking yourself with a hands-on guided art project!
Please RSVP to get reminders closer to the date. Let us know you plan to be there so we can estimate what supplies we’ll need. Thank you for supporting library programs and the Hutchinson Community College with your attendance!
