The Santa Barbara Printmakers evolved from the Monotype Guild, founded in Santa Barbara in 1989. The small group of artists, who produced one-of-a-kind hand-pulled prints, has become a membership organization representing over 100 artists from many surrounding counties. These artists are dedicated to promoting and producing work that uses hand and press-printing techniques for the purposes of artistic exploration and expression. These include etching, monotype, woodblock, collagraphy, linocut, clay, lithography and digital programming.

 

Opening reception: Sunday, April 12, 2 – 4 pm. Live guitar music by Mike Holland.
