We are pleased to announce that the Free Library of Philadelphia has
once again offered to host the Book Paper Scissors Artists' Book Fair.
The date is Saturday, November 22, 2008. So mark your calendar now, and
plan to do all your holiday shopping in one fell swoop.
We are sending out the call (attached) for people who would like to
participate as vendors this year. Table space is limited, so please
respond soon! This is a great opportunity to show work, sell work, and
see what book/paper/scissors people are doing. Artists’ Books, blank
books, handmade paper art, prints, paper jewelry . . . if it’s
paper-based art, it’s welcome.
We are also looking for volunteers to run one hour workshops for
children at the Free Library that day. Let us know if you are interested.
You will see that we are asking for $25 for members to participate this
year. This money will go to the Free Library (which had set up/take down
expenses that need to be covered this year). The fee for non-members is
$50. If you are not a member, consider joining. For a mere $75, you can
become a member AND have a table at the fair.
Please contact us if you have questions.
