Honour Roll of the Impress Printmaker's Studio Incorporated Management Team (IMT)
The executive positions of the Impress Management Committee (formerly IMC now IMT ) have been filled by dedicated volunteers since the inception of the organisation.
Some people have served in several positions over many years and worked selflessly to achieve what we have today.
We recognise their contribution.
