There are also materials that were provided to conference attendees such as the event schedule, an invite to the Colorado Paper Collective Showcase, a Denver Dining Guide, and an invite to see an exhibit of the work of Ray Tomasso (a long-time member of NAHP who began to explore handmade paper as a sculpture materials in the late 1960s and early 1970s), and an invite to a workshop in Ray Tomasso's honor. This box also includes the contents of a binder of the participating members of the NAHP 2024 Annual Showcase; it includes the artist's photo, the artist's bio, a picture of their showcased art, and the artist's statement on that piece. Lastly, this box contains samples of handmade paper art made by papermakers at the conference; some of the paper samples include artist information and information about how the paper was made.
