There Will Be Bleed
If you’ve ever been to a Crop, you’re likely familiar with our live print series, There Will Be Bleed. Every Crop experience has had an exclusive commemorative print for that particular event. Our long-time Industry Print Shop family and a special guest artist, will lead us through the 11th installment of our print series. All General Admission attendees can participate in this portion of our programming and receive a commemorative print.
The perfect playground for creatives, where vibrant creativity and innovation collide.
