Poor Man's Portable Printing Press at 77 Flea Market

Museo {i}menos presents…
The Poor Man’s Portable Printing Press IX
(a stencil making workshop)
by Museo {i}menos founder {active stencilist / stencil activist} René Z.Garza
museoimenos@gmails.com, 956.534.1997

The workshop includes a brief history of the stenciled image and basic stencil making techniques. Make your own images, freely and ready to reproduce, using this historic, democratic art. We will also make a collective work of art for future exhibition.

This is the nineth of twelve monthly workshops in 2006 held by the Museo to promote independent arts practice (that is to say art with very little resources). Donations are accepted but not required to take part in Museo {i}menos activities. It is our goal to make artistic practice accessible to everyone.

The stencil making workshop will be held

From Open to Close
77 Flea Market
Brownsville, TX

Directions: East US 83 toward Brownsville becomes US 77, exit Stillman Road / Old Alice. The Flea Market is on the south side here and highly visible.

To participate you will need to attend with posterboard, a #1 exacto-type knife, a can of spray paint, some designs, and something to paint your image on {t-shirts have been popular to the workshop, but just about anything goes}. Also, {i}menos will lend you materials or they may be purchased as they are available.

Museo {i}menos is a different kind of museum without walls, formal attire or admission fees. We pop up wherever we can and even in some places that we can not.

Museo {i}menos ¡Para los que hacen mas con menos!

Many thanks to Rene Garza and his wife for doing the workshop at the pulga 9/17. I had the honor of setting up shop next to his workshop. Several artist stop by that Sunday including: Cande, Mark Clark and his wife, Mauricio S. and myself of course. Rene I hope you do it again...
I myself will be out there promoting the arts..
I WILL BE AT THE BROWNSVILLE 77 FLEA MARKET SUNDAY 10/01/2006. ORIGINAL GABRIEL TREVINO SKETCH-DRAWINGS FRAMED AND MATTED $10 EACH. MOBILE: 956-639-1497 Many thanks to all who stop by last weekend 9/23 to talk and purchase some of these original sketches "not copies, original sketch".. I have made several more in order to continue promoting the arts here in Brownsville. I want to make original art accessable to everyone who seek it. For these sketches $10 dollars is a very fare price considering my investment as an artist and the product aspect. Any lower than that is a kick in the but. See you out there.... *Remember the Four Emerging Artist Art Exhibition continues at UTB Richardson Art Gallery till OCTOBER 5. Be sure to stop by and check it out.
