More fun photos (courtesy of Kim Laurel) from the CPC gathering on our rooftop printmaker party deck, where Deb introduced new CPC Co-Director Lauren Steinert, and we all ate some killer home made grub. We also got a preview of Deb’s “wing” of the studio that fronts Lincoln Ave. Looking forward to more community gatherings this fall!
