The Society of Northern Alberta Print-Artists (SNAP) is a non-profit, artist run centre dedicated to print making.

SNAP was founded in 1982 as an independent, cooperatively-run fine art printshop in the Great West Saddlery Building, located in central Edmonton. In 1996 they opened a gallery.[1] SNAP is a member organization of the Alberta Association of Artist-run Centres (AAARC).[2] SNAP publishes SNAPline, which includes "diverse examples of fine art printmaking" 3 times a year, and has attracted attention by local, national, and international artists.[3] The University of Alberta Library has the full run of SNAPLine from 2002 to present.[4] SNAP will move to an expanded space on 115th Street in the Queen Mary Park Neighbourhood in spring 2020.[5]
