In-Person

This workshop is designed for participants 14 years of age or older  who have never printed with a letterpress. Bring a text of not more than 75 characters (spaces included) to set and print. We will print your poster on a mid-nineteenth-century cast iron letterpress, using wooden type.  Participants  will lay out text and design elements on the bed of the letterpress and print five copies of their poster. Registration required; limited to 4 participants.
