First-Ever Wayzgoose at Hamilton!

November 20th–22nd, 2009:  Two Rivers, Wisconsin

Thanks to all who attended our first annual Wazgoose Weekend. Over 100 printers, typographers and designers descended on Two Rivers for a weekend of wood type fun. Matthew Carter was on hand to unveil his stunning typeface which is being named Van Lanen in honor of the museum's founder Jim Van Lanen. Very cool.

Mark Simonson said the wayzgoose was "One of the best type-related events I've ever been to. Really enjoyed it." Here's another great review and recap from Dan S Wang. And yet another from the blog "Daughter Number Three." Thanks a million!
