The American Print Alliance
takes the print arts
into the 21st century.

The American Print Alliance is a consortium of non-profit printmakers' councils in the United States and Canada. The Alliance sponsors national and international projects, like this website and travelling exhibitions. Alliance funding comes primarily from subscriptions to our journal, Contemporary Impressions. Read it to catch up on the critical issues surrounding contemporary print arts, take part in the dialogue and inspire your creativity. By supporting the Alliance with your subscription, you also get an advocacy organization, exhibitions, resource publications, and more. Make a commitment to help us bring the print arts to their fullest potential!

Soap Box Prints 2: Prints, Politics & Democracy

Our new traveling exhibition shows how prints express the rights and responsibilities of democracy and inspire people to defend freedoms, serve in elected office, vote, demonstrate and take part in political life. The exhibition itself demonstrates that prints can be an influential part of the democratic process. Opening during our 2008 Print Dialogue Days in Atlanta, the exhibit will then travel for two to three years. Please help us find additional venues, so we can demonstrate to the world how printmakers advocate for democracy.
