PoNC
Simply put,PoNC is a group of artists who like to make prints, but PoNC-sters do much more than
that. We are a collective who's goal is to spread awareness of the media to the community, as well as
create a support structure to assist and encourage other printmakers. We hold quarterly meetings that
include critiques, discussions and other relevant activities. PoNC maintains a website which includes links to all its members and a Print Gallery that features new and innovative work by PoNC-sters.
Membership is $25 per year. To join go to www.printmakersofNC.com
