December 10 | Art-Making After Dark: Printmaking
Head to the ICA for an evening of printmaking led by Boston-based printmaker Louis Meola.
This program is inspired by the exhibition Cynthia Daignault: Valley.

Louis Meola is a Boston local who received a BFA in printmaking from Emmanuel College and an MFA from SMFA at Tufts University. An avid printmaker who will “literally print anything,” Louis has made prints with a multitude of nonrational matrices. Materials like discarded metal or flattened tomato cans all have a story that connects Louis’ practice with family, tradition, and everyday life.
