LOWELL'S FIRST EVER DIGITAL PRINTMAKING SHOW
AT LTC'S GALLERY THIS MONTH
LOWELL, Mass. -- From September 23- November 1, digital artwork from across the country is on view at LTC's downtown gallery. The show, entitled Digital Art: Printmaking 2013, is part of Lowell Celebrates Printmaking, a city-wide exposition in conjunction with the Boston Printmakers Biennial.

Jim teaches, exhibits and performs across the United States and internationally. His most recent post was as Assistant Professor of Art & Design at UMASS Lowell.
