This just came in from Albertine Press:
Shelley Barandes of Albertine Press has teamed up with the folks at Taza Chocolate and La Tene Chocolatier for a truly delicious open studio & Valentine’s Day celebration!
Please see details below and the attached letterpressed flyer for the event. It’s going to be a great chance for people to get a behind-the-scenes look at how cards are printed and chocolate is made from “beans to bars.” It’s also the first time Albertine Press has opened its doors to visitors since moving in to the new shop in December. There will be hot chocolate, tasting truffles, and a limited edition valentine that you can print yourself! And of course, a chance to pick up paper & chocolate for your valentine.
Who: Albertine Press, Taza Chocolate, La Tene Chocolatier
What: Paper & Chocolate - open studio Valentine’s Day celebration
Where: 561 Windsor Street, Floor B2, Somerville, MA (just north of Inman Sq. - free parking)
When: Sunday, February 11, 2007, from 1 to 4 pm
Why: who doesn’t love paper & chocolate!
