Letter from the Director
Greetings everyone!
On the way to the shop I had a revelation! I realized why I got into
this art making. I really enjoy making things. After a long drought of
not working on my own projects, I realized while printing, I was
actually happy to be working at the press again. The act of working
with one's hands, the physicality of bringing something to life is really
satisfying.
In March of 2009, Columbia College Chicago will host the Southern
Graphics Council Conference centered on the theme of
"Global Implications.” We are in the midst of planning for this event,
which will showcase prints made by artists from around the world, as
well as discussions and presentations relevant to art making in both
local and global communities. We expect over 1,000 people will
attend the conference and we hope you will be able to join us as well.
This is an exciting time for us as we find new ways to mesh our work
This is an exciting time for us as we find new ways to mesh our work
with the education of the students at Columbia College and expand
the opportunities we can offer to individuals exploring the printmaking
medium. To all of the people who have generously donated to
Anchor Graphics’ recent annual campaign thank you very much.
You have helped make our special programming possible.
Sincerely
David Jones
Executive Director
