Support the Print Access Pass Program

The Print Access Pass Program supports artists transitioning from school by providing access to our printmaking facilities and community. A $450 donation sponsors one artist with a full month of unlimited 24/7 studio access and a year-long membership. 

Each year, passes are granted to post-secondary institutions to recognize excellence in print media students. To further reduce financial barriers, award passes are offered to artists from equity-seeking groups, including individuals with disabilities, Black and Indigenous artists, students, and newcomers.
