In its sixth annual celebration of print culture, the Printers’ Ball hosts over 250 literary organizations from around the world. The most comprehensive free literary showcase in the nation, the Printers’ Ball yearly attracts more than 2,000 publishers, editors, writers, designers, and readers.
Marking the opening of the event’s doors to electronic publications, websites, and blogs, and demonstrating how print and digital media can complement one another, the theme for Printers’ Ball 2010 is PRINT <3 DIGITAL.
Print media, including “little magazines,” weeklies, glossies, zines, small presses, and specialty print and design houses, will offer a diverse array of ink on paper, with many items available for free. The evening’s activities will also include screenprinting, letterpress, and offset demonstrations; papermaking; digital installations; screenings; readings; and live music.
