I’m hosting an artist talk on July 31st 10:30am to 12noon with local book and paper artist Gina Page. The event will take place at Urban Bounty HQ in Paulik Park. Please come to the Ash st. side of the park.

Printmaker, poet, papermaker, and book artist, Gina Page has spent most of her life on the coast of British Columbia, Canada, a significant influence on her work. Gina studied printmaking at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver with Bob Steele, has taken printmaking and other courses at Emily Carr University, and has been an active studio member of Malaspina Printmakers Society on Granville Island.
Her books of poetry are held in numerous public and university libraries in Canada and the United States of America. Her first chapbook of poetry, Along a Road of Pattering Shade, published in 1986 by Seawrack Press, was mentioned in a review by George Woodcock in the online Poetry Column of ABC BookWorld.

There will be a short demonstration on book binding during the artist talk.
