Join the Edmonton Poetry Festival Society at The Society of Northern Alberta Printmakers (SNAP) Gallery for an exploration of why-wait-to-be-published-when-you-can-do-it-yourself chapbook production. Facilitators Big Al and Abbigail Ketsa offer a sample of some of the methods you could borrow or straight-up steal to create, decorate, and procreate your own unique chapbook.
Members of the SNAP artist collective will also be providing a behind-the-scenes orientation into the printmaking techniques and technology available in the SNAP studios. Did you know they have a moveable type press? Well, you do know now!
Registration: Limited. The registration method is currently to be confirmed, so mark it on your calendar and stay tuned! Visit https://edmontonpoetryfestival.com/2025-festival/events-schedule/ to stay up to date.
