Exciting News!

INVITATION FOR EXHIBITION AT STEVENSON UNIVERSITY FOR SOL PRINT STUDIOS ARTISTS

SOL Print Studios workshop participants have been invited to participate in an exhibition at Stevenson University, curated by Diane DiSalvo, the Director of Curatorial Programs. The exhibition will open September 2012.

"I am not surprised Sol Print Studio has become a center of creative energy and production.

The academic year 2012-2013 Stevenson University Exhibitions Program Art Effects marks its 15th year offering our students and the regional audience a professional venue for art and artists. We promote intangibles; spiritual and intellectual stimulation by supporting creative and intellectual curiosity and growth while we continue to offer substantive art and the professional experience. Working with Sol Print Studio would be a natural collaboration and I'm sure I could select a spectacular exhibition from work produced this spring and early summer for a fall show."- Diane DiSalvo
