Mo'Print is 100% volunteer organized and supported.

Beginning in March 2014, the Month of Printmaking (Mo’Print) volunteer committee has organized a biennial event celebrating the fine art of making original, hand crafted prints with the purpose to inspire, provide accessible education opportunities to the public, and promote awareness of educational events in the Denver metropolitan area, the front range region, and throughout Colorado. Mo’Print is a culmination of over a century of rich printmaking history. View a timeline of local printmaking history to see how Mo’Print is built upon and continuing a legacy of artisans.

BLACK INK : a Mo'Print Fundraiser. Start off the Month of Printmaking Denver with Block Prints and Craft Beer, March 2. Printmakers in Denver carved more than 35 blocks and each one was printed in additions of 15. at Genghis Kern Design & Print by Mo'Print masters.

BLACK INK is both a month-long exhibition and fundraiser for Mo’Print. Hosted by TRVE Brewery in 2018, 2020, and 2022, all prints were for sale for $10 each.

Generously sponsored by Speedball, 50+ linoleum blocks are distributed to various Denver artists. After carving, the blocks are returned to the organizers of Mo’Print. Printing of all the blocks is then done by Mo’Print volunteers at Genghis Kern letterpress, another of Mo’Print’s sponsors.

The complete gallery of 170 prints can be viewed here.
