Each year, A/P hosts a print exchange and exhibition in conjunction with an exciting sale and silent auction fundraiser.

Participants from around the globe submit an edition of ten original 8” x 10” prints to exchange with each other.  Two impressions of each edition are retained by A/P to sell and auction to lucky buyers/bidders at affordable rates.

The annual Not So Mini has become our most anticipated event of the year that showcases the work of local and international printmakers, with all funds raised directly supporting A/P’s community programming.

This year we received over 55 editions by artists from:

Calgary, AB; Edmonton, AB; Foothills, AB; Spruce Grove, AB; Sherwood Park, AB; Montreal, QC; Stukely-sud, QC; Golden, BC; Regina, SK; Halifax, NS; Astoria, NY; Brooklyn, NY; Ambala City, Haryana, India; Adachi ku, Tokyo, Japan; Sherwood Park, AB; Draycott, Derby, United Kingdom.

No Place Like Homo brings together screenprinted ceramic tile and prints on paper to illustrate a non-linear experience of masculine pregnancy and queer home life. Taking root at the intersection of reproductive justice and queer liberation, No Place Like Homo draws on themes of choice, loss, intention, and autonomy, and questions what it means to “conceive of” in the context of conception itself. The exhibition explores contrasting desires for visibility and for safety, offering a view that is both zoomed in and zoomed out, tender, lighthearted, resolute, and joyfully mundane.

For the 3rd year running, A/P is organizing Lasting Impressions, a non-juried exhibition for A/P members to showcase their work.

We are now accepting registrations, with new and returning members welcome!

Registration deadline: July 30, 2024.

Lodestones are naturally occurring magnets, a near-magical phenomenon that was eventually harnessed within biomedical imaging technologies like MRI machines. Although healthcare can be a heavy topic, dreamy visions of technicolor and even glitter transform a difficult, isolating subject matter into a universal tale that nearly anyone can see themselves within…

Even With Sharp Teeth You Can’t Bite Water is an exhibition of new works investigating The Diasporic Imaginary and the complications of self-fashioning while still in the midst of grappling with a fraught inheritance…
