PRINT is excited to announce the fourth annual PRINT Exchange 2023! As artists, we often are the most likely to value and support each other's work. At PRINT we believe we all benefit from sharing our work freely with each other. Printmaking is a wonderful way to make our art more accessible and trade-able between ourselves, in this way we can inspire and support each other.
