Call for Printmakers
"I am art curator at Belltown's Two Bells tavern, and I would like to put together a block print show entitled Creative Block. All work must be available to hang from the beginning of June through the end of July 2012. There is no theme, simply a showcase of Seattle talent. Submissions must technically be block prints, as the title of the show implies. Send images to my email address with your preferred contact info. Thanks!"
