Our latest newsletter is out. One of the benefits of POV membership is digital access to our quarterly newsletter, The Deckle Edge. While we are based in Melbourne, we also have members in other states and at least one overseas. Interstate members are currently able to join the weekly zoom meetings (covid innovation) where we discuss all things paper.

Gail is also working on a piece for the Biblio. Posted @withregram • @gail_stiffe_books_paper I started on my piece for the Biblio Art Prize. The paper is a mix of recycled board, abaca and kraft and with a bit more work it will become a book. Based on Monuments by Will Kostakis.
