Black Squirrel Pattern Printing and Button Making: An Open Studio Event

Did you miss the first Black Squirrel pattern printing open printing session? We are doing a second print session, free and open to the all, including the general public. Come print a pattern paper designed by Common Press studio coordinator Erica Honson, featuring black squirrels and architectural elements of the Fisher Fine Arts Library. And make your own button featuring the pattern.

Open Studio Event: Regardless of experience, we invite you to come practice some letterpress-printing. Open to Penn students, staff and faculty, and members of the general public. RSVP is recommended but not required

Please email jesspe@upenn.edu if you'd like to attend and are not a Penn Card holder.
