Veterans Creative Expression Workshop: Printmaking Posters

Wednesday, Aug. 23, 2023 | 11:00am - 12:00pm

In this month's Veterans Creative Expression Workshop, led by Diamond Johnson, participants will create two 4x6 posters with printmaking supplies after learning about positive and negative spaces and how to utilize lines and color. All supplies will be provided, and no experience is needed.

This FREE program is open to all veterans and current service members. A spouse or other family member (age 16 or older) may take the workshop with their military member, but all participants must register in advance.

About the Series:

OMAM launched this new monthly series in 2023 to provide a free and unique experience to veterans. The hour-long program includes an in-depth look at the art on display and a hands-on art activity using various tools and materials.

About the Instructor:

"My love for art began in Fayetteville, North Carolina, as I perused landscape painting as a child. My love for nature grew during high school as I obsessively photographed various islands throughout Japan. My love for our community heightened after my experiences as an art educator, Meals on Wheels coordinator, VPK volunteer, and art gallery assistant. As a daughter of a US Army 82nd Airborne veteran, I am so honored and grateful to work with the Ormond Memorial Art Museum & Gardens. Their mission and impact within our community inspire me to create and share positive experiences with Volusia County, and beyond!"
