BENEFIT PRINT PROJECT
Benefit Print Project coordinates the creation of limited editions to raise money for non-profit arts organizations. It was established in 2010, and is co-directed by Thomas W. Lollar and Paul Limperopulos.
One form that this proceeding may take is to work directly with non-profits and match them with artists to create limited editions. The other unique way is to work with artists, who select an organization of their choice to support.
