For many years Canadian print artists have been considered leaders in =
the
global community of printmaking. Despite its relatively small population =
and
vast land mass, Canada has generated a significant number of world-class
university printmaking programs, and has developed many thriving
co-operative print studios across the country. A number of these
institutions have been formed by artists sharing a common interest in =
the
repeatable image, and in print-based ideologies and technologies. By
supporting and fostering the works of others, the Canadian print =
community
has become strong, both nationally and internationally.=20

=20

Hosted by the Vernon Public Art Gallery in 2009, the First Okanagan =
Print
Triennial will be an exhibition featuring the best and most innovative
prints and print-based works being made by artists working in Canada. We
plan for the second OPT, in 2012, to be open to artists from North, =
Central,
and South America, as well as to Canadians. Subsequently, the Okanagan =
Print
Triennial will be open to print artists from around the world.=20
