Founded in 1964, The Washington Print Club is open
to all who are interested in fine art prints and the graphic arts: collectors,
connoisseurs, artists, and just plain folks who enjoy prints as an art
form.
The Club organizes frequent programs
for its members:
- Tours of important print-related exhibitions in
the Washington, D.C. area, led by curators
- Visits to significant private collections and
to artists' studios
- Panel discussions and lectures
- Invitations to gallery openings
- A biennial show of prints from members' collections
at an area museum
- Trips to other areas to see important shows or
to visit artists' studios and important collections
Four times each year members receive the Club's publication,
The Washington Print Club Quarterly, a journal
containing articles about recent programs and scholarly subjects of
interest to print enthusiasts, as well as notices about print exhibitions
and related activities in the Washington area.
Members joining at the Collector level receive an
original signed print by a Washington
area artist.
Requests for a membership application and a sample
copy of The Quarterly may be placed on our contact
form or on voice mail at (301) 460-5019.
