As the year winds down, we’re preparing for our Annual Print Sale and the release of our Annual Card Packs! Our members have begun to print their editions on our beloved Vandercook Letterpress and we’re loving what we’ve seen so far. These limited edition collectable card packs directly contribute back to the operation and continuation of our Non-Profit Printmaking Cooperative. We love seeing which designs excite you and which ones you’re excited to share with those you love!

Three down, nine more to go! Stay tuned for more sneak peeks, mark your calendar and start your countdown for November 7th for our Annual festivities!

Card designs in order:
Kyle Knapp
Ben Jones White
Elaina Workley

A group of our members have been in the process of a huge collaboration and they’ve started to hit the collective printing stage. The studio is full & so are the drying racks so we’ve got some creative solutions popping up. We’re excited to see it all happening & love to see the studio hitting a flow state with this project— even our studio orchids bloomed to see what’s new. More to share about the project soon!
