Demand for our seminars for this year has been extremely high and to avoid disappointment through over-subscription we have reformatted the event to the concurrent exhibition and seminar format." And he added: "Once again we are expecting a high turn-out where attendees can get down to grass roots for a better understanding of what to do in every aspect of digital fine art print.
The industry has advanced and we too have advanced to accommodate the changes of manufacturers now coming to terms with the fine art digital revolution." Hardcastle continued: "The mix of DCP and a wealth of proprietary equipment and associated systems are greatly enhanced by the knowledge and experience of Anthony Marshall and other seminar speakers.
They will provide informative and beneficial events for artists and photographers considering digital production more seriously, as well as for those wanting to expand their involvement in the technology." The cost of attendance is GBP39.95 for the seminars and the exhibition, or GBP19.95 for the exhibition only, both include coffee and a buffet lunch.
