Horn Press Events and Activities

{upcoming events}

Help us organize and participate in events such as:
*Papermaking, because we all love pulp.
*Library tours, because books are cool, and places to keep books are part of that coolness.
*Visits with dynamic movers in the world of paper arts and rare books.
*Anything else you might think of as fun and relevant.

{official meetings of the Horn Press}

We meet once a quarter: Fall; Winter; Spring.
For the most part, we gather at events (see above and below) and have fun.
