We are excited to announce the launch of the Association of Print Scholars
(APS). APS is a nonprofit members’ group for enthusiasts of printmaking
that will bring together the diverse community of curators, collectors,
academics, grad students, paper conservators, critics, independent
scholars, and dealers. APS’s goals are to encourage innovative and
interdisciplinary study of printmaking and facilitate dialogue among
members.

Membership benefits will include:

   -

   Access to a searchable database of active members and their current
   activities
   -

   Ability to update online membership profile with all print-related
   activities
   -

   Announcements about events, exhibitions, calls for papers, and other
   news from the print world
   -

   Opportunities to promote new projects to members on the APS website and
   listserv
   -

   Participation in APS’s events, including lectures and scholarly
   conferences
   -

   Grants for digital projects and research, and support for
   working/reading groups


For further information, please contact [email protected], or visit
