Last year I attended and it was nice to see what the faculty and students are doing. The informal talk they had, in my opinion, is better than formal gallery talks since you can get a better understanding of every individuals piece of work. You can learn what inspired them, their methods, and techniques used.
Visit the Marywood Print Guild online to check out last year’s prints and work from previous years up until 2003, when the Print Guild was started by Professor Peter Hoffer. Another thing that I was unaware of until now is that under the Student Work page on the Art Department website you’ll also find another online collection of student work in the Student Printmaking Archive. The collection contains student work from all the way back to 1973 to present day. After visiting the Print Guild show check out both of the links to further appreciate printmaking.
If you’re interested in attending, you’ll find an event for the Print Guild reception and show on the Marywood University Art Department Facebook page.
