The campaign for the next chapter of The Printing Museum

3121 SAN JACINTO (AND ELGIN)

2022 marks the 40th anniversary of The Printing Museum opening its doors to the public. Four area printers founded the museum with a vision to share their collections of rare artifacts and vintage printing equipment with the public and to explore how the printing arts contributed to the development of civilizations around the world.

The FORWARD @ 40 campaign, set to raise $400,000, will support the relocation of our facilities to Midtown near other cultural partners and attractions, granting artists greater access to our studio resources, and technology and facility upgrades to grow our outstanding exhibition and education programs.

The Printing Museum depends on the generosity of supporters like you to ignite creativity, foster hands-on self expression, and champion the history and power of print.

Please consider making a gift today. Any amount is greatly appreciated.

Campaign Goal: $400,000

Current Pledges: $195,000
