Open Studio Closed :(

Our pipes recently burst :(

OPEN STUDIOS: Saturday’s 13h00-18h00

Our power-washer is out of commission :(
This means we don’t have screens for you to use. You can still silkscreen if you have your own, but you won’t be able to wash the emulsion out. Sorry !!!
Our sewing machines are also acting out :(
You can still check us out on Saturdays to hang out, check out our distro, use the studio space, check out the darkroom and make some 1″ buttons.

The Ste-Émilie Skillshare has recently taken steps towards ensuring the solidity of our future.  For many years, this volunteer-run organization has provided marginalized communities and those who work in solidarity with marginalized communities with: project support, programming in and out of our space, as an event venue, and as a screen-printing workshop, among other things. With our emphasis on self-representation and self-expression from an anti-oppression framework, our members have been building an organization dedicated to social transformation.   Read more »

Le centre d’art communautaire Ste-Émilie Skillshare a récemment pris des mesures pour assurer la pérennité de notre collectif. Depuis de nombreuses années, cette organisation dirigée par des bénévoles a, entre autre, fourni à des communautés marginalisées et leurs alliés un soutien pour leurs projets. Nous offrons une programmation tant à l’interieur qu’en dehors de nos murs; un lieu événementiel, de rencontre ou d’atelier pour la sérigraphie, le dessin et la photo. Avec un accent sur l’auto-représentation et l’auto-expression et selon nos principes d’anti-oppression, nos membres ont construit une organisation dédiée à la transformation sociale. Read more »

Say Hello To September’s Fight Boredom Zine Resident!

Say Hello To September’s Fight Boredom Zine Resident!

Khristina Acosta is a mental health worker and caretaker living in central New Jersey. A co-organizer of C.L.I.T Fest New Brunswick, she is interested in making people of color (POC) more visible in the punk and DIY scenes. Her zine will be about how a string of disappointing romantic situations have convinced her to be non-sexual with anyone until January of 2013. Although these disappointments were the catalyst, it will also deal with issues of consent, boundaries, mental health, family history, failed polyamory, and both internalized misogyny and white suprematism. Overall, what it means to be a sex-positive feminist while figuring out how to unlearn your oppressive and unhealthy habits. An avid reader of zines, this will be her first zine coming to fruition and not just floundering in Google Docs.
