Swan-Levine House

Located in the heart of beautiful downtown Grass Valley, Howard Levine and Margaret Warner Swan have developed their guest house around their interest in printmaking.

A discussion of the fine art of printmaking can be followed by the opportunity to make an etching, monotype or lithograph in the studio next to the Inn.
