Party in Chicago

JOIN US on April 7 at Columbia College Chicago Center for Book and Paper Arts for a festive celebration of papermaking, featuring a presentation of images from Hand Papermaking magazine archives and commentary by a very special guest. The benefit event, honoring Hand Papermaking’s 25th anniversary, will be full of surprises and we hope to see you. Call (800) 821-6604, or see all the details at http://events.handpapermaking.org/

You’ll be treated to a delicious assortment of food and drink. Graze and schmooze, or make a dinner out of it! After the presentation, browse the exhibits and then get your hands wet in the papermill. Perhaps your name will be drawn from our festive handmade paper tophat. Either way, you’ll go home with a paper keepsake made especially for the occasion.

RSVPs are required. Reserve your spot by contacting Hand Papermaking today. The Center is located on the second floor at 1104 South Wabash. For more information see events.handpapermaking.org or call (800) 821-6604.

Thank you for supporting Hand Papermaking!
