I worked with the fine folks at Crayton-Heritage Letterpress to produce this 16x20 poster on 100% Cotton Crate Lettra, and am beyond happy with the printing.  The posters will be sold at our Friday, Feb 24, 2012 fundraising event for The Educational Center, as well as at the public exhibition on Saturday, Feb 25, 10-4.

It was quite a treat to visit last week for a press check with the lovely, detail-oriented Jillian Long -- so cool to see the press in action.

They serve only local NC brews!)

I am proud to be part of their launch with the design of their website and some email promotions of their opening.  The fantastic photography was supplied by the very talented and resposive Tonya Russ Price of Poprock Photography.

Best of luck to owner Joe DiLeo and his staff!
