Join us tonight at 6:00 PM at the Folger Shakespeare Library to hear David Vickers and Julian Thomas speak about their organizations and work. See previous post for information about Julian.

David Vickers
Vickers is controller of press at the the Gwasg Gregynog Press in Wales. This charity organization seeks to preserve Wales’s rich traditions in the book arts and to maintain the Gregynog Press, which was established in 1922. A veteran craftsman and fluent Welsh speaker, Vickers joined the Press at the time of its re-establishment in 1978, and has overseen every aspect of book production since then.
