Join the Book Technologies Lab at 4 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 16 in 601 Lindquist Hall for its first-ever Print the Past event. One part academic panel, one part printing workshop, a totally new way to learn about a famous text. This year, in honor of its 250th anniversary, the event will be spotlighting the Declaration of Independence.
Learn about this remarkable document from an interdisciplinary panel: Dr. Katie Lanning, English; Dr. Alex Middlewood, political science; and Dr. Jay Price, history. Then try your hand at printing your own copy of the declaration on the handpress.
This event is co-sponsored by the Robert L. Cattoi Book Technologies Lab and the departments of English, history and political science. It is free and open to the public. Learn more about the Book Technologies Lab at wichita.edu/booklab.
