On Feb. 19, AIGA Miami presents “Pull+Ink,” the latest installment in the Parallels series. Each event in the series explores how one profession relates to and interacts with design. For “Pull+Ink,” three top screen-printers will discuss their art and perform a live demonstration before engaging the audience in a roundtable discussion.

For this event, AIGA Miami proudly welcomes Jeff Matz, Principal of Lure Design in Orlando (luredesigninc.com), as well as Ian Rowan & Chuck Loose, Principals of Iron Forge Press in Fort Lauderdale (ironforgepress.com). In an increasingly digital landscape, these artists will examine how their century-old craft still produces fresh, innovative designs – from print-work to clothing and beyond.

The artists will also screen-print live and offer exclusive work for sale to the audience.

The event is free and open to the public. AIGA invites anyone curious about creativity to be part of the conversation, especially students and those new to the industry looking for insight from seasoned professionals.

About AIGA Miami
In 1914 at the National Arts Club in New York City, 40 people met and passed a resolution authorizing a committee to draft a constitution and bylaws for a new organization named the American Institute of Graphic Arts and established “as a source of pleasure and intellectual profit” to its members.

Sixty-two years later in 1986, South Florida initiated its own chapter. It took some time to process the national paperwork and become incorporated in 1987. Some members of the original founding group were: Lee Warfield, Cynthia Haanegraf, Geoffrey van de Woerstyne, Jacques Auger, Claudia Auger, Katharina Drexel, Terry Stone, William Armenteros, Danny Ramirez. The early group received a lot of support from H&D Graphics (Bob Haff, Mike Daugherty, Karen Daugherty & Joanie Skipp) and Supertype (Livy Shephard). Many other important sponsors have helped us grow our programming and influence in the South Florida Design community.

AIGA Miami continues to be maintained by an all-volunteer board of dedicated members of the design community.
