VOLUNTEERS
We are asking for exhibiting printmakers who would like to take up the opportunity of free studio access time to work on making plates and/or printing artworks during the two days of the exhibition. The aim is to have a dynamic atmosphere with printmakers working in the studio showcasing a diverse range of media. A separate form will be circulated for this closer to the exhibition.
Please email exhibitions@printstudio.org.au for any enquiries.
