WE HAVE NEWS FOR YOU!

Minnesota Center for Book Arts Celebrates 25 Years
Each year tens of thousands of visitors of all ages come to Minnesota Center for Book Arts. Please help us celebrate. Encourage your readers, coworkers, friends and families (and yourself) to stop during June’s anniversary events.

Artists at all levels have found a voice for their expressions in our studios, which is exciting to witness. During June of 2010 MCBA is celebrating these guests as well as staff, volunteers, board members, guest curators, teachers, students, shoppers and neighbors past and present. How? Through events that open our doors in an even grander manner. We hope you’ll encourage your readers, coworkers, friends and families (and yourself) to stop in and celebrate with us during June’s events.

To assist you with your story or to help you get more acclimated to all the goings-on at Minnesota Center for Book Arts, we have developed this handy online press kit.
