The Prints of GIL JAMIESON | Ground Floor, Walter Reid Cultural Centre | 1pm - Sunday October 12

We invite you to join us for this rare opportunity to enjoy printmaking works created by well known Central Queensland artist Gil Jamieson. The works will be presented by Matthew Jamieson from the Monto Museum of Art, with a discussion of his father’s work.

Print Day in May 2025 | Cyanotype | 3 May 2025 | CPI Studio/WRCC

An annual global celebration of printmaking taking place on the first Saturday in May each year. See our Archives for previous activities.

Our printmakers opened our Studio and joined the world wide activities for International Print Day in May, exploring CYANOTYPE methods. We had demonstrations and printing from 10am to 2pm. Unfortunately cloudy skies and light rain meant the scheduled group cyanotype activity with community participation could not occur... maybe later in the year!
