Back From DC

Well,   
We are all back from our trip to Washington, DC. Well, we actually got back last Saturday but it has been so hectic around here I have just now been able to post. We had quite the fun filled weekend in our nation's capitol. We visited the National Portrait Gallery (and talked to their Director of Education), the International Spy Museum, the Newseum, as well as other cultural institutions. Those museum visits we did as a group and then we broke off and explored on our own. Personally, I went to the Holocaust Museum, the Hirshhorn, and spent much time enjoying the weather.

Amy, Ansley, Megan, and myself also took a trip to Peake DeLancey Printers in Dayton, MD to watch them print our new letterhead and business cards. We met up with Jeff Walters from CDG Interactive (our design agency for the re-branding) and Steve Johnson from Peake DeLancey. We were able to tour their HUGE facility and watch as our new materials came off the presses. Below are some interesting photos.

Here is the plate for our new letterhead being prepped for press
