Hatch Show Print Workshop: Gallery Reception


So I was fortunate enough to participate in the exclusive workshop for senior level design students with the infamous letterpress shop Hatch Show Print. We were split into groups of three and given the sentence "I Have Lost What I Cannot Find," and have to collaborate on the design we wished to create. I worked with the lovely and talented Valerie Hammond and Lydia Light to create a piece that I am very proud of. On top of printing our very own designs using Hatch's extensive library of fantastic wooden and lead type and beautiful imagery, we all were required to "personalize" our prints which creates a really unique show for Watkins. The work we all did is up in the gallery at Watkins and there will be a reception this Friday. I also got to design the graphics and invitation for the show which was a fun project. Once I get the chance, I'll take some photos of the prints I did. Come this Friday, August 28 from 6 to 9!
