Francisco Delgado,of the Desert Triangle Carpeta, recently made lithograph prints at Flatbed Press in Austin, but after the book was published.  May we continue to send El Paso artists to do fine art prints at Flatbed Press, because El Paso has talent!

La Printeria 75 Grados also has a gallery at the Freight Gallery and Studios, in the Lone Star Arts District (we did a pop-up print show there in 2015), which comes to life during the Second Saturday Artwalks in San Antonio. I checked it out on July 8, 2017:
