Butcher Shop Press is an art-based initiative housed in a space at the back of an early 1900s era building in East Flat Rock, NC where a butcher shop once operated.

Through workshops, exhibitions, and open studio access, the studio aims to foster a vibrant printmaking community that honors the rich craft of print and the unique artistic voices of our region.
