Andy Volpe will give a slide lecture titled "Printing Revolution", which has a double meaning, referring to both the printing press and what was being printed, which was considered "Revolutionary".

The program will focus on the lead-up to the American Revolution and the printing of the Declaration of Independence. Andy will also talk about the legal battles fought between the Colonial printers and England over the ideas of a Free Press and Freedom of Speech. 

Following the presentation, Andy will share a display of several replica prints including the Declaration. This program is approximately 1 hour and appropriate for grades 5 and up, adults, and seniors. Area teachers are encouraged to attend, as Andy is offering to bring the program to area schools. The program is free and all are welcome.
