- Devan (Penniman) Knapp
- Devan (Penniman) Knapp, then Devan Penniman, was the tenth Artist in Residence at Mesa County Libraries at 970West Studio. She served as the Artist in Residence May 6 - August 12, 2019. She is a baker, letterpress printer, zine creator, co director of the CMU Art and Design Alumni Chapter and overall creative problem solver. She lives in Fruita with her partner, their husky and an abundance of plants, old things and books. After graduating college with a BFA in Graphic Design she entered a pit of depression, not knowing what to do next so she went and hiked the PCT, where she cried all her fears out. Since being back, she knew she wanted to embody the words community, creativity and passion. She enjoys putting together events that bring people together through art, such as the Fruita Zine Party, art get togethers, and pop up galleries that showcase local artists. Paper is her passion, whether it's setting type and letterpress printing on some nice thick cotton paper, creating a zine with friends or adding to her collection of old books. After her residency at Mesa County Libraries, she started the community print shop Desert Dog Press.
