"Take Exit 10 off of I-89 (Waterbury/Stowe). Go North on Route 100 for
approx. 8 miles. HMC is on the left as you travel North on Route 100,
about a 1/4 mile past the Mansfield Dairy (you can see the silos on
the left) & across from the Pines Motel... south of Stowe."
HMC will provide pizza and soda for those in attendance.
MARCH MEETING
Do you have questions, or maybe answers, to those nagging design
questions? Come and learn something new, and probably share something
as well. We'll start with Print and Prepress, but the conversation may
vary. Design theories and print production will no doubt be discussed.
Bill Germer will facilitate this openly formatted session. There will
be a computer with projector to demonstrate so all can see. We will be
studying (but are not limited to) specifics in InDesign, Quark,
Photoshop, Illustrator, and Acrobat.
