Oak Knoll Fest XVII



October 5-7, New Castle, DE
This annual event features speakers and exhibitions, focusing mainly on fine press books and printing. The symposium on Friday is already full, but talks on Saturday and Sunday morning are open to the public. The fine press exhibition and sale is open Saturday and Sunday afternoon; exhibitors listed for this year include Ladies of Letterpress and PCB member Thomas Parker Williams. 
Oak Knoll Books, seller and publisher of books about books, is open during the Fest and offers a 20% discount on all books from Friday through Monday. The store has many rare and hard-to-find volumes, and is worth a visit itself.
New Castle is a charming colonial town about an hour’s drive from Philadelphia, the perfect setting for this celebration of the art of fine press books.
