Memberships run from January – December. Memberships are by application, which are reviewed throughout the year. If we have openings, we will accept members mid-year. Potential members need to demonstrate a basic knowledge of printmaking techniques, and a desire to work in a community with a focus on sustainable art making practices. Taking a workshop at Zea Mays Printmaking is a great way to begin the process.
