Organisations

-

The Society Of Wood Engravers was founded in 1920

and revived in 1984. It consists of about 70 artists,

elected to membership on merit and a wider group of

subscribers. Its principal activities are its annual

touring exhibition of relief prints, selected from a

world-wide, open submission; and its newsletter.

-

The Wood Engravers' Network was founded in 1994 and

is an organization for the education and enjoyment of

relief printmaking and, in particular, engraving upon

end-grain wood. Annual meetings are arranged and

members are encouraged to contribute to a "bundle"

of prints which is distributed twice a year.
