Fine Press Seminar for Emerging Writers
Folks, I'm passing along this e-mail from the Fine Arts Work Center; please share this opportunity:
The Center for Book Arts invites applications for our Letterpress Printing & Fine Press Publishing Seminar For Emerging Writers. The next section of this seminar is scheduled for Fall 2005. The seminar is tuition free for
participants. Participants will hear lectures from various professionals in the field - printers, fine press publishers, book artists, and dealers, to get a practical overview of letterpress printing and fine press publishing. They will learn the basics of letterpress printing, both traditional typesetting and options with new technology, by collaboratively printing a small edition of chapbooks or other projects.
Each seminar will be offered to a maximum of eight students. Writers from culturally diverse backgrounds are especially encouraged to apply. Finalists may be interviewed or asked to provide supplemental information to their applications.
Applications will not be accepted from students enrolled in undergraduate or graduate degree programs during the program year (September 2005 - May2006).
Application postmark has been extended to October 1, 2005.
Email snicholls@centerforbookarts.org for more information, or download the guidelines at http://www.centerforbookarts.org/newsite/opportunities/.

this looks so cool!
ron, I keep not noticing how small a world the bucknell seminar is part of! there are two other bucknell people at the ut austin michener center (donika & darius), and apparently one other graduated last year, and I think she's the one who's got the roth residency this year.
why is it so much easier for me to write a blog comment than to write an email that would've said the exact same thing?!
