ACPS members are invited to submit two prints to be considered for an exhibition to be juried by gallerist Gaby Heit at her gallery in the Crane Arts Building. This will be an opportunity to share our work with a new audience that may be unfamiliar with printmaking and our organization. The exhibition will run March 12th through May 2nd, 2026, with two public receptions, March 12th and April 9th, 2026.
