Bucks County Community College: Paper Prayers
Paper Prayers
The BCCC Printmaking Club will be holding a printmaking workshop for the college community to create "paper prayers" in conjunction with the annual exhibition in the library gallery. The workshop will take place in Hicks 106 from 11:00 am-5:00 pm on Saturday, November 7, 2009. Materials and refreshments will be provided!
The finished work will be displayed in the Library gallery from November 17 to December 1, 2009 in conjunction with World Aids Day. Proceeds from the sale of these works will be donated to the Family Service Association of Bucks County.
Paper Prayers is an AIDS awareness exhibition that is held in conjunction with World AIDS Day on December 1. The tradition is derived from the Japanese practice of offering colorfully decorated strips of paper as a prayer for good health and well-being. In this project, 4-inch X 12-inch strips, featuring a variety of handcrafted media including handmade paper, printmaking, collage, painting, poetry, photography, digital imaging and mixed media, are hung vertically around the walls of an exhibition space.
