About Print Circle:   Established in 1970, the Print Circle is a group of women artists who are dedicated to printmaking.   The group was formed at the Workshop Arts Centre in Willoughby, Sydney; our vision, to encourage experimental and innovative techniques and to support and exhibit the work of women printmakers.   Our members currently produce limited edition prints in various traditional media including etching, lithography, silkscreen printing, collagraphy, woodcut and linocut as well as solar plate intaglio and digital prints. Other media include monoprints, installations, assemblages and artist books, as well as mixed media monotypes, reflective of contemporary printmaking practice.  A number of PRINT CIRCLE artists will be present at the opening in Katoomba.
