We are looking for eclectic, exciting and compelling artists working across print in all forms to join us for our very first South West Printmaking Open at Studio KIND.

Studio KIND. is known for its print studio at the front of the gallery, and what better way to celebrate all the fantastic work that is being made in printmaking across the South West than bringing some of our finest printmakers together under one roof?
