The Wood Engravers’ Network (WEN) Third Triennial Exhibition is coming to the Museum of Printing from April 20th through June 22nd 2019!


This is WEN’s third juried, traveling exhibit and features 64 engravings by 37 artists from New England and throughout the United States as well as Canada, Ireland and Belgium. Juried by Gray Zeitz of Larkspur Press, the show will travel through the end of 2019.


New England artists represented include Evan Charney (MA), Leslie Evans (MA), R. P. Hale (NH), Eric Hoffman (RI), the late Anna Hogan (MA), and Abigail Rorer (MA). As many know, the work of beloved local wood engraver, Anna Hogan, is on permanent exhibit here at the Museum.


Several events are scheduled during the show’s tenure:


April 20th - Opening Reception 1:00-3:00 p.m., Gallery Talk & Wood Engraving Demonstration at 1:30 p.m. by Evan Charney, Free Admission


May 18th - Wood Engraving Demonstration by Abigail Rorer


June 1st - ‘Relief Printing ~ An Afternoon with The Boston Printmakers’, Noon to 3:00 p.m.


June 15th - Wood Engraving Demonstration by Eric Hoffman


Wood engraving is a relief printmaking process where an original drawing is cut into the surface of an endgrain wood block and then inked and printed to create a reflected image of the cut block. The prints are considered multiple originals created in limited editions - not reproductions or digital creations - offering an affordable entry into collecting original art works. Many of the prints in the show will be available for sale, as will the show catalog.


Come celebrate the art of wood engraving with us!


Museum of Printing, 15 Thornton Avenue, Haverhill, MA, museumofprinting.org, [email protected], open every Saturday, 10 am to 4 pm, year-round.


Note: The April 20th opening reception is supported in part by grants from the Andover, Boxford, Georgetown, Groveland, Haverhill, Merrimac, West Newbury and Topsfield Cultural Councils, local agencies which are supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
