The exhibition highlighted the artistic legacy surrounding the Claremont Colleges—its early pioneers, their influence on the community, and the continuing dialogue between historic and contemporary printmaking. Drawing from Claremont Heritage’s Special Collections and new student works, the show explored shared inspirations of spirituality, environment, and local identity.
Printmaking has deep roots in the Claremont Colleges, tracing back to the founding of the Claremont College Press in 1946. Through diverse techniques such as serigraph, etching, and lithograph, the exhibition celebrated the endurance of experimentation, repetition, and collaboration within this tradition.
By connecting archival works with emerging artists, Reprinting Claremont invited visitors to reflect on how the city’s creative history continues to shape its artistic community today.
