“...whether that is on racial equality, climate awareness, or reproductive healthcare, I would love it for my peers to have the same opportunity and experience of growth as I did. The service-based projects not only allow the younger generation to shine light on current issues, but are also bridges of connections between individuals and the wider community.” - M.Lei CRMS Senior

Our goals include:
- celebrating the power of print as a tool for sharing ideas, impacting awareness and creating beauty.
- keeping the tradecraft of traditional printmaking alive by facilitating access to equipment, exploring experimentation, and enduring power of print as creative expression.
- facilitating creative experiences for all regardless of experience, means or access.
