The Association of Finnish Printmakers was founded in 1931, originally to improve the status and appreciation of graphic artists and to increase opportunities for exhibiting works both in Finland and abroad. The Association continues to pursue this agenda, to safeguard its members’ professional interests and to create better working conditions and exhibition potential. The Association also provides expert consultations for public administration decisions involving art, and distributes information on current issues in printmaking to its membership and to the public at large.

The Association of Finnish Printmakers is in close cooperation with other Finnish artists’ organizations and also manages contacts with foreign organizations, primarily the Nordisk Grafik Union.
