Live Printmaking in Santa Fe -- HerStory

At least 80 people attended the live printmaking in Santa Fe at the Axle Contemporary mobile art van, on Mother's Day, Sunday, May 8th, 11 AM - 3 PM.  This was part of the HerStory project, which was currently on display on the Axle van, organized by Julianna Kirwin and the rest of the collective:




The Axle van and folding tables were set up at the southern end of the Rail Yard, across the street from Site Santa Fe.
