Artists of Manneken Press

Jonathan Higgins and Sarah Smelser’s Manneken Press in Bloomington invites significant contemporary artists to collaborate with master printmaker Higgins to create original works in intaglio, relief, lithography and monotype. The prints are sold in galleries, museums and high-end art fairs in major cities. This exhibit includes 15 of the 30 artists they represent.

Combined Reception: Saturday, March 18, 6:30-8:30, free admission, donation requested. Meet the exhibiting artists and view their artwork in three galleries.
