the Dallas Society of Visual Communication. So what does that really mean? It
means that, every month, a different sustaining shop or agency donates their time

photographers, and illustrators, chip in to deliver stories, tales, and expos's
pertaining to, or in the interest of, the DSVC community at-large. Then, local
print shops and paper vendors contribute much-appreciated supplies, materials,
