In the days following September 17th, word began to circulate that something big was happening on Wall Street. People were camping out in Zuccotti Park, protesting economic injustice, making friends, creating art. One morning, a couple of printmakers showed up at the park with a screen and squeegee and began making prints on clothes, paper, or whatever items people brought. Gradually, more people (with and without relevant experience) began to populate the makeshift print station, and Occupy Wall Street Screenprinters soon ballooned into a major hotspot of Zuccotti Park life. |
