our mission:

The mission of the Washington Print Foundation is to advance contemporary printmaking, photography, and the book arts in the Washington area. Since its founding over 13 years ago, the Foundation has worked in partnership with Washington Printmakers Gallery to provide accessibility to these vital contemporary art forms and to promote fine-art printmaking and appreciation of contemporary, artist-made prints, photographs, and artists books through education, exhibition, and community outreach programs. Through its outreach to galleries and artists, the foundation has provided monetary assistance for inventive and passionate work by accomplished artists both locally and nationally.
