Crown Point Press presents a winter group show, Grounded. It includes prints by eighteen artists who have worked at Crown Point Press over the years, and it encapsulates a variety of stylistic approaches and etching techniques.

Art can aid us in finding peace and balance in tough times. In this exhibition, we focus on prints that encourage a sense of grounding, which involves being present in the moment and intentional in thoughts and actions. By grounding ourselves, we can move forward into 2021 feeling centered, despite setbacks.
