Multidisciplinary artist Kate VanVliet will give a public presentation on a print project she completed while in residence in Tyler Printmaking’s Advanced Etching Class this fall, fresh from her 2024 New Voices Fellowship and Exhibition at the International Print Center of New York. She will also discuss her experiences as co-founder and director of BYO Printmaking Collaborative, a nonprofit community printshop and artist collective started in 2010. 

VanVliet received a BFA in Fine Arts from Moore College of Art & Design in 2007. She was a resident at Vermont Studio Center in 2017 and was the 2018-2019 printmaker in residence at Cheltenham Arts Center. In 2022, VanVliet co-curated Solastalgia: Redefining Home in Precarious Times, presented at the annual conference for SGCI: Our Shared Future, in Madison, WI.

Her work is in numerous collections, including The Free Library of Philadelphia, Zuckerman Museum of Art, William Penn Foundation, Bowes Art & Architecture Library at Stanford University, and Moore College of Art & Design. She teaches printmaking at Cheltenham Arts Center and offers tutoring at BYO Printmaking Collaborative. She is represented by Paradigm Gallery + Studio.

This program is made possible through the use of the Temple University General Activities Fund.
