Oola dons her party dress once again as we plan a road trip to Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts in Gatlinberg, TN.

I’ve warned her that it might get a bit sticky/scratchy inside that bit of polyester and nylon fluff. But she won’t hear it.
I am taking a workshop called Low-tech/High-octane: Printmaking for Artist’s Books taught by Daniel Mayer whose work I have admired from a distance. Check out his “Book Arts Jargonator”, a movable text volvelle! I think early August will be a great week for making books.
We’re leaving here at the end of summer semester and traveling generally on the I-80 — I-70 path. If anyone has any suggestions of interesting places to see along the way, we would be glad to hear of them. Please send recommendations in the reply/comments box/link at the bottom of this page.
