Mixit Print Studio is a professional monoprint/intaglio studio
located near Davis Square in Somerville, Massachusetts. Established
in 1987 as a direct outgrowth of our previous cooperative printmaking
workshop, Artist's Proof, our goal was to put together a well-equipped
professional studio and to foster a supportive and interactive community
of printmakers/artists.
Years of experience and careful thought have gone into planning
and improving our 1300 square feet of space. Our 40 x 70
American French Tool press and our 30 x 60 LeDeuil cast
iron press are supplemented by a 18 x 30 Ettan press.
Vent hoods, moveable fans, and many windows provide ventilation.
Large tables and counters provide surfaces for both "clean
hands" and "dirty hands" work. We have a metal sheer,
an aquatint box, a light exposure set-up and a custom designed forced-air
print dryer. The Mixit Print Studio provides solvents, rags, flat
and cubby storage. Each artist is responsible for inks, paper, plates,
blotters, and personal supplies.Proof in Print: A Community of
Printmaking Studies, published by the Boston Library gives more
information about Mixit Print Studio and related print studios.
