Join us for an open house at Michigan's newest design and letterpress printing studio, Elevated Press. Founder Michelle Baker will be showing off work by the studio, and the 75 to 110 year old machines used to produce it.
Also on display, the photographs of Peter Baker, whose work has been exhibited around the country and the rest of the world, as well as appeared in numerous magazines including Metropolis, I.D., and How. He will be showing recent work focusing on the state of Michigan, as well as previous works.
Greeting cards, prints, and limited edition photographs will all be on sale.
Forest Juziuk will be providing the musical styling, and J. Trees Cellars will be providing their newest varieties of wine.
[This will be the first in a series of 3 local artist exhibitions at this space, with a larger 4th culminating group show in another space. The dates for the other three shows are planned for March 6th, March 20th, and April 3rd.]

Elevated Press will be participating in the Renegade Holiday Craft Fair in Chicago this weekend!
We've been in major printing mode for the past few weeks trying to get all of our new items ready for the show. And now that everything is printed, we can finally start showing the new work! Several of our new items are designed by artist Alisa Bobzien for Elevated Press. We're so happy to be working with such a fantastic talent and we think that her designs are going to be enjoyed by all. Thanks so much Alisa!
Check out Alisa's post about her visit to the Elevated Press studio.

Elevated Press is very happy to announce that we will be participating as a vendor in the Renegade Holiday Craft Fair in Chicago on December 5th and 6th!
This is our first Renegade Craft Fair, and we are super excited to show our work next to so many other talented artists and craftspeople. For those of you not familiar with the Renegade Fair, I think they say it best: "The Renegade Craft Fair is a unique, DIY event showcasing over hundreds of the most talented Artists + Crafters around. The fair takes place in cities across the US, including Brooklyn, Chicago, Los Angeles & San Francisco. At RCF you'll find all sorts of cool handmade stuff - including plush items, jewelry, poster + prints, craft kits, clothing, stationery + more."
Some new products that we're working on for the show include: an adorable new love-related card, gift tags, a limited edition art print, 2 more holiday cards, and a 2010 calendar!
The Fair is taking place at the Pulaski Park Fieldhouse, in Chicago's Wicker Park neighborhood.
The address is: 1419 W. Blackhawk St., Chicago, IL 60642

These business/calling cards were designed by Elevated Press for artist Noel Bielaczyc, using Noel's illustration of a fish head. We feel that the cards perfectly merge Noel's abilities as an artist and a cook, and his experience as a fish monger.
