Portland Paper Show 2019 Recap

This year’s 25th annual WCP Portland Paper Party was a wonderful event featuring 20 vendors at Coopers Hall in SE Portland, complete with food and drink to gather around. The theme of our event this year was Partnerships, an idea that’s incredibly important to our team at WCP. To celebrate we partnered with local graphic designers to create custom posters based on our theme. The posters were printed on a variety of different types of paper, as each designer was paired with different paper mills to bring their unique creations to life and highlight the partnerships within the local design and print community.

Designers and printers mingled with vendors and the WCP team, interacting with paper mill tables, collecting the themed special edition posters, new swatch books, design samples, and goodie bags. There were many new products to learn about, including the recently announced Power of Green our new environmentally focused resource in collaboration with Neenah. 

We love paper and design, and our annual Portland Paper Show is our way of giving a little something back to the paper and print community we love so much. If you missed the event, or need assistance, stop in our Portland and Seattle WCP location to visit our sample rooms and work with our specification experts.

WCP Solutions would like to extend a special thank you to the participating vendors, designers, and printers who helped create our special edition event posters and make this year’s event so special.
