MISSION

Zygote Press is an established, nonprofit community printmaking studio, gallery, archive, and education center that supports artists through residency programs, studio access, and artistic development in a collaborative environment open to all.

VISION

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Access

Zygote is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion in all forms. We are committed to using all resources at our disposal to uplift the communities that we serve, and we believe in being accountable to them. Our staff, board, and stakeholders are fully invested in reforms that address systemic and structural injustices against underserved, marginalized, and overlooked groups of people. We will continue the diversification of our board, staff, teaching artist pool, residency programs, and internships. While we are currently engaged in breaking down barriers in fine art printmaking, we will always strive to grow and do better. We vow to continue learning, listening, and rebuilding Zygote as an organization that operates in service of equity, accountability, and access for all.

We believeā€¦

  • Printmaking must be sustained as a vital contemporary medium in the world of art.

  • The practices of printmaking can create a community that cultivates collaboration, innovation, and the exchange of ideas.

  • All artists in our region need access to an affordable, inclusive, professional printmaking shop.

  • Education and advocacy through the art of printmaking can foster new relationships and partnerships between artists and the community that can improve the quality of life for everyone.
