On October 8th a number of our friends, peers, and cohorts will be featured in the first exhibition of the Chicago Printers Guild.

Chicago, with its rich print-making history, has a vastly dynamic community of artists which is constantly growing yet deeply rooted in tradition.  The CPG is hoping to invigorate and engage the city of Chicago in order to promote print-making, as well as celebrate the vast array of artists taking part in this exhibition.

As part of the North Coast Music Festival’s inaugural event, the guys at Fugscreens Studios and I have gotten together to create a small series of posters that will be available at the event. “Guard Tower”, as seen here, will have an edition of 300 available at our booth until they sell out. The prints are approximately 17” x 25”, 6 colors,  printed on French Cover Stock, & individually signed/numbered. 

If you’re going to the show over Labor Day weekend at Chicago’s Union Park, feel free to stop by the booth, say hello, and pick one up while available.
