The Library of Congress graphic art collections seek to represent the history, concerns, and significant creative and intellectual achievements of the American people, with an ongoing emphasis on diversity of viewpoints and creators.

We will also see artist prints created at such regional printmaking studios as Brandywine Workshop, Crow’s Shadow, and Hand Print Workshop International.
