Bluegrass Printmakers' Podcast
Tucked away in Lexington, there's a studio where the smell of ink and the sound of presses are a constant. Bluegrass Printmakers' Podcast pulls up a stool in that space, offering a direct line into the world of the Bluegrass Printmakers' Cooperative. Each episode feels like a conversation among friends who share a deep, practical passion for the craft. You'll hear artists discussing the tactile challenges and rewards of their work, breaking down techniques from etching to screen printing in a way that’s accessible whether you're a seasoned printmaker or just curious about how art gets made. The dialogue here extends beyond the studio walls, exploring how prints communicate ideas and connect with a community. This podcast serves as an audio companion to the cooperative's mission, documenting the ongoing exchange of knowledge that happens in workshops and the thoughtful considerations behind putting work into an exhibition. It’s about the entire process-from the first sketch to the final pull of a print-and the collective effort that makes a cooperative thrive. For anyone fascinated by the hands-on nature of art and the stories embedded in ink and paper, this series provides a genuine, unfiltered listen.
