Hand Printing in Digital Times

Posted by on
Join us this Saturday, July 23, at 2:00pm for a panel discussion on Hand Printing in Digital Times. Book artists will talk about the tradition of letterpress printing, digital innovations, and how their work incorporates craft and technology.  The program takes place in the Latino-Hispanic Community Meeting Room, Lower Level, Main Library.

After the program there's still time to take a walk (or the elevator) up to the Skylight Gallery on the Sixth Floor, where over eighty works are on display in the 14th Triennial Pacific Center for the Book Arts exhibition BookWorks. The show continues through August 7.

BookWorks is sponsored by the Book Arts & Special Collections Center of the San Francisco Public Library. Come visit!
