PBI 2010 will be held at the University of Maine, Machias campus located along one of the last wilderness coastlines in the Eastern United States from July 11-22, 2010. The campus houses the book arts and papermaking facilities directed by Bernie Vinzani, and is near the studios of Gray Parrott, Katie MacGregor, Walter Tisdale and Nancy Leavitt.* The area is home to three thousand year old petroglyphs, a large population of bald eagles, black bear and moose, and world famous pies from Helen's Restaurant. The local populace is kind enough to call you "deah" (dear) after you meet them. PBI 2010 instructors are Frank Brannon, Melissa Jay Craig, Tatiana Ginsberg, Deborah Howe, Ellen Knudson, Katie MacGregor, Emily Martin, Jeff Peachey, Yana van Dyke, and David Wolfe.
