Welcome to Dolphin Press & Print @ MICA
Dolphin Press is located in Baltimore at the Maryland
Institute College of Art. We regularly produce original
editions of artist's books and print editions of the
highest level, comparable in quality and scope to professional presses.
Dolphin Press is a learning press. Pedagogically, it focus
on student collaborations with visiting artists and on
professional development.The Press delivers learning in
new formats, different from a typical studio classroom
experience.
It is the only university-based shop where students are
the printers, not assistants. They work as the principle
technicians on all projects under the supervision of
Dolphin Press master printers.
As a result, Dolphin Press is creating future artists &
collaborators who emerge from MICA as creative
entrepreneurs with skills in master printing, archiving
and curatorial practice.
