This October, see prints all over Lincoln Square! In conjunction with the City of Chicago's artists' month, the Chicago Printmakers Collaborative (CPC) will exhibit members' work throughout the neighborhood. There will be dedicated opening receptions at three main venues: Cafe Selmarie, The Old Town School of Folk Music, and the CPC itself. Additional prints will be placed at Bridgeview Bank.
CPC will offer a Saturday of guided tours and printmaking demonstrations, starting at the CPC, then hit the streets to view more prints. A special suite of prints entitled ‚"On the Map¨ has been created in honor of this year's theme by 15 members of the collaborative. It will be on view at the Old Town School of Folk Music.
