Description
In 1979, a group of Washington, D.C.-area printmakers came together to create a small edition of original prints offered in calendar format. Selected by a new juror every year, the artists are chosen from a regional span that has gradually extended to include artists from across the country and, occasionally, abroad. The calendars are housed in the archives of the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and are included in the collections of the National Gallery of Women in the Arts; Georgetown University; The National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution; and the Library of Congress, among others. The 2003 Calendar was juried by Jay McKean Fisher, Deputy Director of Curatorial Affairs and Senior Curator of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs at the Baltimore Museum of Art, Maryland.
