THE PRINTER BEHIND OUR ‘BEHIND THE PLEXI’ FLEX

This good-as-Gold man is John Goldsmith of @printmaker.studio (printmaker-studio.com), who has been providing printing at cost for each and every one of our #BehindthePlexi project prints.

Each high-quality, satin-finish Behind the Plexi print is professionally printed by John and his team on archival paper of 100% cotton rag Epson Legacy Platine with Epson UltraChrom HD pigment ink and packaged in a sturdy envelope with a layer of glassine for added protection.

All proceeds from the sale of each print featuring the work of local photographers @wadecomerphoto, @hudsonny, @whentheyfindus and @mayowill will be dedicated to the creation of two new scholarships for restaurant workers who have experienced employment setbacks due to COVID-19 — one via the @bchospitalityfoundation and the other to the @chineserestaurantawards scholarship at Vancouver Community College.

The Chinese Restaurant Awards will also contribute $10 for every print sold from the collection of photos taken at Chinese and Taiwanese restaurants.

“I’m hoping that we see the momentum this project has gained so far keep going — it’s such a great cause and I’m so excited to play a small part in it,” says Goldsmith.

Our hats are off to you, John, for chipping in and helping us provide a helping hand to Vancouver’s restaurant workers when they need it the most!
