Event Overview

GET YOUR HANDS DIRTY!

Print your own poster and learn the art of letterpress printing!

In this class, you will learn the basics of typesetting and composing with vintage wood type, then pull your own prints on our sign press!

You will choose one quote to print onto five mini-posters (8.5 x 11), then trade with other group members and take home a small portfolio of their designs.

This is a great class if you have been interested in trying letterpress printing but have little to no experience.
