Past international exhibits featured artists from Japan, the Middle East, and Cypress, with
an upcoming exhibit scheduled in the fall of 2010 to highlight printmakers from New Zealand.
As a member-driven organization, member participation is highly valued. Opportunities to assist with art installations, to disseminate information about PAN programs and exhibits, to participate in educational programming, and to support fellow members at art openings, are a few of the options available for member participation.
