I was invited by the Wondrous @jay_the_fox to University of Arkansas Fort Smith to give a book arts lecture, teach a workshop, and make a book. This was an incredible marathon visit filled with tacos, vertical Nubian lead type, folds, coffee. Our book isn’t about race horses but it will be completed soon. The book arts and letterpress printing studios at UAFS are stocked! The students are great! The company was neato! AND, they are building a shiny new book arts space! UAFS has many book arts adventures in its future and I feel very lucky to have been a part of this program. Everyone, get to Arkansas and go see Jay!

Did you know that kids can marble paper? Show them how to make art when they are young and they just might value it for their entire lives.
