Washington Print Club

The Washington Print Club (WPC) was founded in 1964 by twelve collectors, business leaders, and museum professionals. The WPC aims to nurture a greater understanding and appreciation of the variety of often complex and interwoven printmaking processes. Moreover, prints and other works on paper often are more affordable and therefore a gateway for art lovers to build a collection. The Washington Print Club welcomes print enthusiasts of all sorts-collectors, artists, scholars, and novices.
