The Saskatchewan Network for Art Collecting chose Brownridge, Dalton, Jessup and Mullan as their Artist of the Month for February 2012.Шаблон:Sfn In 2013 Articulate Ink moved from the top floor of the Creative City Centre to a larger space on the second floor more suitable for its workshops and activities.Шаблон:Sfn As of 2015, Articulate Ink was the centre's largest tenant.Шаблон:Sfn Articulate Ink joined with Ink Slab Printmakers of Saskatoon to form the Saskatchewan Printmaker's Association.Шаблон:Sfn Articulate Ink was a finalist in 2015 for the Saskatchewan Young Professionals & Entrepreneurs (SYPE) Volta Award for a young entrepreneur or team that has demonstrated operating success in Saskatchewan.Шаблон:Sfn
