Today's Birmingham Printmakers follow in the footsteps of a previous generation of printmakers who were active in the city decades ago. In a special presentation, Dr. Graham Boettcher introduces these talented men and women who won regional and national acclaim for their art, offers a rare look at their prints, and gives us a peek into their lives and careers.
