Hundreds of Printmakers,
Hundreds of Prints! One Weekend Only!

The Graphic Arts Workshop will host the only west coast showing of the Brooklyn-based Arthouse Coop's 2013 Print Exchange project.

Hundreds of printmakers from around the world (including 4 from the Graphic Arts Workshop) have each contributed a print interpreting the theme, The Drive Home.

The prints will be on display Friday, Saturday and Sunday, July 26-28, 2013, from noon until 5 p.m. each day. The Graphic Arts Workshop is located at 2565 Third Street, #305, San Francisco, 415-285-5660.

There will be printmaking demonstrations on Saturday, July 27, from 2 to 4 p.m.

The prints are currently traveling across the country on board the Mobile Library with the Sketchbook Project, a traveling library of artists’ sketchbooks, which will be on display at the nearby Center for the Book (375 Rhode Island Street, San Francisco, 415-565-0545) on the same weekend: Friday, July 26, from 4 to 8 p.m., Saturday, July 27, from 2 to 8 p.m., and Sunday, July 28, from noon to 6 p.m.
