Hi friends!

I want to thank you all for making this summer as amazing as it was. I’ve learned so much over the past few months and have met some great people along the way!

I learned how to prep a gallery and hang work:

Host an opening:

Operate and print on the press:

I could continue, but I’d have to make this an entire presentation! The city of North Adams has shown me that as long as there is someone to appreciate it, art can thrive anywhere. I’d like to send a special thanks to Pam and Andy for being my comic relief on slow days, and being such great team members to work with. I’d also like to thank Melanie for all of her insight and guidance through this entire process. She’s shown me so much about art, education, and the world of letterpress. Most of all thanks to all of you for being my “eyes and ears” this summer. As I get ready to head back to 100+ degree weather and grad school, I’ll cherish the mild summers and preofessional/life lessons I’ve learned during my time here. You know how I feel about goodbyes, so I’ll see you later! 🙂
