Please join us for Wayzgoose 2010!
Marking the end of summer, Wayzgoose traditionally commemorates an annual gathering of printing staff as they used the last of the season’s pulp to paper the windows in preparation for winter. Hamilton Wood Type and Printing Museum is once again hosting a modern revival in Two Rivers, Wisconsin. We are proud to welcome printers, designers, historians and typographers from the U.S. and Europe to this conference.
Educators Workshop
Wayzgoose 2010 is expanding it's program this year to include a 2-day educators workshop. Sessions will be geared toward those who work in printing studios and would like to hear and share practical tips for attracting students, collaborating with artists and setting up a shop.
