The King Library Press is co-sponsor for a "Festival of
Fine Print" that begins Monday, 19 September, and will
run for six weeks with events in Lexington, Louisville,

exhibits, workshops, and seminars that celebrate Kentucky's
role in the modern fine printing movement.
The Festival opens with an exhibit of representative
books from the leading American private presses. The
exhibit, "Private Presses: The Book as Art", has been
organized by the festival's co-sponsor, Liberty National
Bank and Trust Company of Louisville, and will run at
the company's Liberty Gallery, Louisville. THE KIKKULI

featuring books published by Anvil Press, King Library Press,
and Stamperia del Santuccio, all of Lexington.
Workshops in the book arts will be conducted for children
and adults during the six week long festival. Among the y
skills demonstrated will be paper decorating and book
binding (conducted by W. Gay Reading, director of the ‘
King Library Press) as well as paper making and paper
decorating for children
The festival will end with a four day Seminar in Graphic
Design and Southeastern Fine Print Competition at the
