Manhattan Graphics Center - Exhibition


Hi everyone!!  Just as an FYI, I have two pieces in the 3rd New York International Miniature Print Exhibition is New York City.  If anyone is near or around New York City and would like to see a large variety of subject matter in a very small printed format (3x3") then please go and visit the Manhattan Graphics Center.

They are located at 250 West 40 St, 5th Floor - New York, NY  10018.
The exhibit runs until November 28, 2017.

When I submitted to this show, it was the first outside of Pennsylvania show that I had submitted too.  I really, really wanted to go and see the show in person, but after coming back from California my wife and I have fallen into a yearning for more Disney...so I put extra money that I had possibly planned on visiting New York with into the Disney World fund and now I have no money for a New York trip....maybe next years.

 
(My two submitted prints - "M" & "Shake Shack" - each 3x3")


Another issue I faced with going to see it was that there must've been a small error somewhere along the line and I never got a rejection or acceptance response.  I didn't know that I had even been accepted until a week before the show was to start.  I packed up prints as fast as I could and mailed them priority mail to New York to try and get them there in time.  I wasn't even sure that they had made it in time to be displayed, but in one of the photos on their Facebook page I found my neon "M" print hanging on the wall.

So again, if you are around New York City within the next couple weeks and want to see a show with varied printmaking techniques then please stop by.  There hours are as follows:

Monday: 6pm-10pm
Tues - Fri: 10am-10pm
Sat and Sunday: 10am-6pm
