When Champaign-Urbana lost David “Prairie” Monk, we lost a devoted preservationist, teacher, and artivist. His work carries on through those he inspired, the prairie lands he restored, and, through his photography and screenprints.

 Art Coop was gifted a number of Monk’s prints and we want to share them with you! Hang one in your classroom. Use it as the basis for a screenprinting unit, or a unit on artivism.  Help us keep the mission and the message going in whatever way best suits you and your students.  Stop by Art Coop during Pollinator Week, June 6-22, 2025,  and pick up a print!
