Get your hands dirty & learn about letterpress!
We offer introductory and advanced workshops for those desiring to learn more about letterpress printing.
The introductory session is a hands-on workshop focused on the basics of letterpress printing, tools of the trade, and history of the craft. During the workshop you will personalize and print a keepsake on a Vandercook cylinder press.
The advanced session focuses on operation and use of the Heidelberg “windmill” platen press and requires the introductory workshop as a prerequisite.
Each workshop is 3 hours and typically held on a weekend. Workshops are generally limited to 4 participants per workshop.
