3rd Spaces, Making Places, Mac and Cheese, Zines, & a Risograph Machine Named Barbara.
Come and join Kate Bingaman-Burt process the pandemic through the lens of operating a very in-person and hands-on community risograph print shop called Outlet and how she perhaps coped with the stress and regressed by making even more zines and why finishing a sketchbook seemed to elude and even taunt her for the first 40 years of her life.
“We are so excited to have Kate Bingaman-Burt as part of the SVAD Visiting Artist Series because she is a great role model for our students. She is a successful commercial artist, a creative entrepreneur, a community leader in the arts, and educator to many groups beyond her college students. Bingaman-Burt is creating work and a creative practice that our students will be excited about as she blurs the lines of design, illustration, and entrepreneurship”. - GD+I Faculty
