Tamarind Institute
Famed printmaking workshop Tamarind Institute, based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has continually advanced and revitalized the field of fine art of lithography since 1960. First formed in Los Angeles, the nonprofit has remained true to its founding principles: to stimulate innovation among artists of the medium through education, collaboration and diversity of artistic backgrounds; to train master printers, whose recognition must include the printer's individual chop (a now-standard practice); and to create an extraordinary collection of fine art prints.

Printmaking power couple Steven Campbell and Christina Ziegler Campbell continue the storied legacy of Landfall Press with Black Rock Editions. Since being handed the reins earlier this year, the veteran employees of Landfall founder Jack Lemon have transformed the independent publisher into the swiftly-embraced community hub it is today. “Our job is to see the holes, to patch those up and make things better," says Ziegler Campbell.
