Dave is running the Heidelberg KSBS cylinder press

Much like a lion-tamer, Dave persuades the press to do fancy tricks: match Pantone, don’t feed too fast, get the right amount of air flowing.

Revamped Building Exterior

Hey, look at it! Our building, the Delevan Center near Armory Square, received a new look thanks to the Connective Corridor project that connects cultural venues throughout the city. The “use” of Syracuse has been appearing on billboards in the area as part of a wider campaign to make these places known. There is a free Connective Corridor bus, bright red signs and flags, and now our building proclaims the theme proudly. For more information about the Connective Corridor & all these topnotch venues creating a vibrant art scene with so much to offer, go to: http://connectivecorridor.syr.edu/
