“...whether that is on racial equality, climate awareness, or reproductive healthcare, I would love it for my peers to have the same opportunity and experience of growth as I did. The service-based projects not only allow the younger generation to shine light on current issues, but are also bridges of connections between individuals and the wider community.” - M.Lei CRMS Senior 

Our Community Service Print Projects are funded in part by the 2022-2023 Arts in Society Grant 

Arts in Society is a collaborative grant-making program that fosters cross-sector work through the arts by supporting the integration of arts and culture into multiple disciplines critical to the health and well-being of Coloradans.

We love cross-sector and inter-organization collaborations. Our Service-Learning printmaking projects are a great way to empower young and emerging artists to learn, engage and gain confidence in their creative expression.  Contact Reina Today


Our goals include:

  • celebrating the power of print as a tool for sharing ideas, impacting awareness and creating beauty.

  • keeping the tradecraft of traditional printmaking alive by facilitating access to equipment, exploring experimentation, and enduring power of print as creative expression.

  • facilitating creative experiences for all regardless of experience, means or access.
