This exhibition examines in detail the workings of one of Canada's most innovative
and productive small presses: The Coach House Press. The exhibit illustrates the Press's
first ten years of operation from 1965 to 1975. While the exhibit focuses on the formative
years of The Coach House Press, it also sets the Press in the larger historical context of the
small press movement in English Canada from its beginnings in the 1940s, to the work of The
Coach House Press's contemporaries in the 1960s. This exhibition is a tribute to the printers,
poets, artists and founders of the many presses on display whose contributions characterize
one of the most dynamic and creative decades in Canadian literature and publishing history:
the 1960s.
