To celebrate the art of printmaking and the global print community, the annual International Print Day is back this year on Saturday 7th May 2016. This year’s event will feature participating artists and studios from countries such as Australia, Argentina, France, Mexico, and of course the US, where the Print Day was first established in 2007 by MPC Printmakers in California.
On International Print Day in May, printmakers all over the world make a point of doing what they love: making prints. In 2015, PDinM had participants in 30 countries, 29 US states and all seven continents, making PDinM a global phenomenon.
