Description
You are invited to become a sponsor of the Bay Area Printers’ Fair & Wayzgoose. In 2026 we mark our eleventh annual event, organized since 2014 by the San José Printers’ Guild. (There was no fair in 2020 and 2021 due to pandemic health advisories.) This event draws visitors from throughout the Bay Area, as well as from more distant parts of California and neighboring states including Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington.
Last year we welcomed 700+ letterpress artisans, book arts enthusiasts, typecasters, papermakers, crafters, designers, tinkerers, printmakers, students, educators, graphic designers, typophiles, and fine print collectors. The 35+ exhibitors showcased a wide range of printed goods, paper, ink, supplies, vintage equipment, and hands-on demos of papermaking and printing in various media.
Your sponsorship enables us to keep the Printers’ Fair and Wayzgoose free to all visitors. It also supports the campaign for a new printing exhibit building at History Park, which will provide the space we are currently lacking to host more workshops and educational events for visitors young and old.
