About Our Guest

Ana Inciardi is a relief printmaker and the creator of the Mini Print Vending Machine. She’s from Brooklyn, New York, and is based in Portland, Maine. Food has always inspired her art as it connects her to the people she loves most: her friends, her Italian American family, and her wife, Addison, an organic vegetable farmer. Accessibility was her goal when developing the Mini Print Vending Machines, which price each mini print at one dollar. Now, her machines can be found all across the country, with more being added each week. Brands Ana has partnered with include: HBO, The Whitney Museum, Books Are Magic, Rachel Antonoff, The Boston ICA—the list goes on. She feels very fortunate to have built a career and life around the celebration of food, eating, accessibility, and community.
