River Arts Inc. will be featuring an art exhibit, Impressions of Hamilton 2009-2016, which will depict both the history of Hamilton wood type as well as feature current works by the infamous museum.  In an effort to connect regional history to our local history, we will be collaborating with Giegerich's Sons, the oldest business in Sauk Prairie, and Tripp Heritage Museum  to highlight printmaking in Sauk and how that process has evolved.  Finally, we will be connecting historical processes of printmaking with current practices by collaborating with the Madison College Graphic Design program.  Students will display their artwork at the River Arts Center and host a special print sale with proceeds benefiting their program.
