Holiday Open House Featuring Handmade Letterpress Greeting Cards

Please join us December 13th from 3-5 pm, in The Rare Book & Manuscript Library for our Holiday Open House. This year a portable letterpress will be set up and everyone will be invited to letterpress print their own free greeting card. The paper will be provided by the Fresh Press, the University’s sustainable papermaking initiative. Students from the Fresh Press and the Noble Print Club will be at the event with their merchandise available for purchase.

Holiday-related highlights, pulled from our collections, will also be on display in our reading room. Seasonal refreshments and fresh mulled cider will be served; all are welcome.
