Print Day in May and the California Society of Printmakers (CSP) announces TRACES of Print Day in May, an online exhibition of prints highlighting artwork made during Print Day in May 2020–2021.

Traces are marks, features, trails and tracks. To trace is to discover, pursue, find and track. The history of humanity can be traced through artists, their marks, pursuits, recordings and questions.

Since 2007, Print Day in May has traced the work of a global community of artists making marks and sharing discoveries worldwide.
