Create with us at the Swing!
set apartists will be available throughout the day on Saturday, June 2 demonstrating different art techniques. Attendees are invited to just watch, ask questions or to actually get in there and create something! Calvert Guthrie will be demonstrating the arts of hand-lettering and letterpress. Attendees will have the option of receiving a professional hand-lettered bookmark with a word of their choice or to print a fun design on the press...Swing style!
