FLATFILE FRIDAY

Welcome to CPC’s (relatively) new Covid-distraction and Visual art series, showcasing the art treasures from our flat files, walls and print drawers. Your host Flat Phil, who has an uncanny ability to slip inside narrow spaces unnoticed, will take you snooping through the drawers and other hidden places to discover gorgeous work by gallery artists that you can buy (Phil would really like for you to support artists right now, many of whom are struggling). CPC will feature one or two printmakers on the third Friday of every month and these will arrive in your email inbox if you are on our mailing list and subscribe to our newsletter. Artwork may be purchased by emailing the studio at info@chicagoprintmakers.com. We will custom-arrange payment and shipping (add around $25 – $35 for domestic) via credit card, cash, check or PayPal. CPC can also hold purchased prints for convenient, sanitary curbside pickup.

We’ve already had so many thrilled buyers contact us to let us know how delighted they are as their prints arrive in the mail, and our curbside recipients have been arriving in their vehicles from all over the Chicago area to say hi (through their masks!).
The CPC gallery is also now open BY APPOINTMENT via our new scheduling app. You may also call us at 773-293-2070. We look forward to seeing you soon!
