Please save Wednesday, November 14th on your calendars. One of our newest members, Matt Forrest, has been working for some time on arranging a date for Print Group to visit AIR studios and galleries. He will be giving members a tour and demonstrating new techniques and materials for printmakers. More details will be worked out in the next two weeks at which time a mailing will go out to all members. This should be a really interesting event. Our thanks go to Matt for making this happen!
