Equal parts party and serious workshop, this historic activity goes back to the 1880s, with the Salmagundi Club being a recognized center for “monotype parties”. Images are created on a plate and run through a printing press to create a singular impression.
Attendees for Saturday all-day monotype parties may come and go all day long. However, all monotype parties must be RSVP-ed for in advance!
These parties have become the most popular events of the club season, so don’t miss out. Whether an experienced printmaker or novice it doesn’t matter!
Attendees are also welcome to dine at Salmagundi. After purchasing your ticket, book a dining reservation in advance on our Reservations page by including the message “Monotype Party dinner”.
