About this Event

A Mobile Printing Press for the People

Join us in person for an exciting event all about bringing printing to the streets!

Dive into the world of letterpress printing, see cool demos, and get hands-on with tools that empower community voices, all while imagining futures with your neighbors.

Drop in anytime between 12pm-4pm for a live workshop where you'll learn to set type, apply ink, and pull your own prints. You will leave with your own unique posters, an understanding of traditional printmaking techniques, and a vision for a better world.

This event is suitable for ages 7 and up. Kids under 14 must be accompanied by an adult.

We will set up at the corner of Woodbine St. and Woodward Ave, inside the park.

Whether you're a creator, an activist, or just curious, this is your chance to explore how print--and the people--can spark change. You are an artist, and your voice matters.

In the event of inclement weather, the event will be moved to Sunday May 10th from 12pm-4pm.

This event is made possible (in part) with public funds from the Queens Arts Fund, a re-grant program supported by New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and administered by New York Foundation for the Arts.
