WE'RE LOSING OUR HOME

The Board regrets sharing with you all the sad news that in early February the City Council of Lafayette decided that the buildings at the Ewing farm are not suitable for occupancy. The Board was stunned by this decision. The Book Arts League will need to vacate the buildings by June. 
 

Eviction presents us with the problem of finding a new space for our letterpress programming and book arts workshops. At a minimum we would need about 200-300 square feet for a couple presses, type cabinets, supplies, and space for participants. The Board understands that (nearly) free space, as we’ve had at Ewing, is not likely.  If you know of a space that would be very low cost, we would be grateful to hear of any leads you might have. The Board would like to avoid placing everything in storage since the equipment would not have in a good climate and it would be unavailable for printing.

We need help with any leads on where we could relocate to and moving and possible storage help. Let us know here if you have any ideas.
