I just wanted to give a shout out about this amazing screening that is taking place at the University of Ulster Belfast in the next few weeks. The above video is a trailer for the film which focuses on The Hamilton Wood Type Museum in Two Rivers, a Midwestern Museum and print shop where international artists meet retired craftsmen. The film explores traditional technique and modern design, the combination of the historical and contemporary. One weekend every month the silence of the museum is interrupted by the buzz of fellow mid west artists whom drive across country to partake in print workshops. The unfortunate truth is that this magnificent museums days are numbered.

“A film about perseverance and preservation in the heart of America.”
