Tonight the San Francisco Center for the Book will be celebrating 15 years of gorgeous book arts!

15th Anniversary Exhibition Opening
Thursday, September 15th, 2011
300 De Haro Street Suite 334
(between Rhode Island and De Haro Streets)
6-8pm
Free to the Public

The exhibition will highlight the best work from SFCB’s incredible teachers and students who have been making beautiful books for the last decade and a half.  If you can’t make it to the opening, you can still see the exhibition during the center’s regular hours.
And if you’ve never seen a STEAMROLLER PRINTING, it’s an experience not to be missed.  Yes, Steamroller Printing–SFCB’s annual outdoor bookfest will feature a 3-ton construction steamroller printing large-scale linoleum block prints–ON THE STREET!

SFCB’s Roadworks Steamroller Printing Festival
Saturday, September 24th, 2011
12-5pm
Free to the Public

 There will also be booths selling stationery and ephemera from local letterpress and book artists, arts and crafts tables for kids–and grown up kids! Watching a steamroller press beautiful prints (which you can buy–there will be several artists offering different images in a range of styles) on a sunny day is one of the great pleasures of living in San Francisco!
