Paper and Substrate Show
5, 6, 7, 8…a room full of energy. Join us for a night of extreme paper aerobics! You can warm up with text and cover paper and then dance your way into a good sweat with digital and offset stock. Don’t forget to take a well-deserved break to enjoy mini lamb meatballs and antipasto. Then continue to “grapevine” from table to table until you get to the final cool down: a bag full of paper samples.
Paper Aerobics will be filled with all the best hits from the 1980s. So feel free to come dressed in your best 1980s workout gear – short shorts, tights, leotards, leg warmers, neon-colored headbands, etc.* – and join all the other paper lovers in California for a terrific evening.
*Just joking! Costumes are certainly not required!
Food & Valet are included
