The Triennial celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, since its first opening reception in December, 1999 at the Robert C. Williams Museum of Papermaking in Atlanta, GA. It was imagined in a conversation between Lynn Sures and Cindy Bowden, as a show that can highlight the work done by college students in the field of papermaking. This year’s jurors, Buzz Spector and Tatiana Ginsberg, have chosen 37 works by 35 students, from 15 universities nationally.
