Join us on Friday from 10am in the Te Pātaka Kura Pokapū Central Library for a hand-print & self-publish festival in honour our f@#$ing ancient friend, Critic Te Ārohi.
The Hocken x Special Collections are hosting an all-you-can-eat make-your-own buffet of cut & paste, handcrafted small press, error-ridden typewriter poems, and super old-school hand-letterpress printing. Follow the signs and road cones up to the gallery and press studio & make a zine or print a poster!
Haere mai tātou katoa. Everyone welcome! Free entry. Drop-in anytime between 10 and 2. All materials and old tech provided.
