MISSION Zygote Press is an artist workshop promoting contemporary fine-art printing. Through advocacy, exhibitions, community programs, and affordable, professional workspace, Zygote stimulates collective exchange. Here, artists create new work, audiences explore new ideas, and collaborations strengthen our community. VISION We believe… • Printmaking must be sustained as a vital contemporary medium in the world of art; • The practice of printmaking can create a community that cultivates collaboration, innovation and the exchange of ideas; • All artists in our region need access to an affordable, inclusive, professional printmaking shop; and • Education and advocacy through the art of printmaking can foster new relationships and partnerships between artists and the community that can improve the quality of life for everyone.
