Join Nick Puglisi and other Design Network members on May 8 for a tour of Ben Blount’s MAKE Studio. Blount is a Detroit born artist, designer, and letterpress printer that loves books, type, and putting ink on paper. His work often explores questions of race and identity and the stories we tell ourselves about living in America. Blount is a believer in the power of the printed word and shares his passion for print and design speaking to students and educators around the country and as a board member of Artists Book House and Fine Press Book Association. Blount prints out of MAKE, his storefront studio in Evanston’s West Village neighborhood.
