The Poster (slightly off topic)



I just wanted to share this with you.

I am taking The Poster class instructed by Bert Smith. We are learning type setting and letterpress at Globe Poster Company. If you get the chance to take this in the future, do it. The guys at Globe, Bob & Frank, are awesome and to have the opportunity to learn this, dare I say, ancient art of design, you should jump at the opportunity. It is a lesson in the history of print & design, while you get hands on experience designing and producing posters the old school way. I'm not sure if it gets any cooler than that.

They are having a show in the student center and the opening night is Thursday, 6—8. They are going to share stories and there is a reception afterward.
