Printmaker in Residence: Dirk Hagner is the first in a series of exhibitions highlighting artists in the Center's Printmaking Residency Program. This program supports printmakers by providing them with 4-6 week working studio residencies in our Print Studio, and supports non-printmakers by providing the assistance of a Master Printer to realize their visions. Each year the Center aims to sponsor four residencies for printmakers and two residencies for non-printmakers.
