The Lawrence Lithography Workshop
Kansas City, MO
Michael Sims established The Lawrence Lithography Workshop in 1979 as a contract printing and teaching facility for local and regional artists. Based in Lawrence, Kansas, it provided a place where artists with little or no printmaking experience could collaborate with a master printer to produce original hand-pulled lithographs. Over time the workshop expanded its operation beyond contract printing, increasing its emphasis on printing and publishing national and regional artists. Today TLLW, now located in Kansas City, Missouri, is one of the few privately owned, fine art publishing presses in the Midwest.
