The Model Printmaking Workshop of the Cyprus Chamber of Fine Arts was established in 1996 as a result of the collective efforts of the CCFA, printmakers within the CCFA and other visual artists.

 

The workshop is located in the area of Pallouriotissa, Nicosia, and provides the necessary infrastructure and suitable conditions for the production of printmaking. At the same time, it serves as a nucleus for several other collaborations, events and exhibitions that pertain to the fine art of printmaking.

 

Since its inception, the Model Printmaking Workshop–CCFA has hosted a significant number of notable events. Several organized workshops, speeches, lectures and exhibitions have taken place, aiming to arouse the interest of the artistic public in original engraving artwork and its aesthetic value. The Cultural Services of the Ministry of Education and Culture have acted as vital supporters of Cypriot Printmakers from the very beginning.
