About this Event

Create a Custom Letterpress Poster: Adult & Child Collaborative Workshop

Join us for a hands-on letterpress printing experience where a parent or guardian and a child (ages 7+) will design and print their own unique posters using our collection of vintage wood type and decorative blocks.

Each 2 person team team will:

  • Design a poster using our antique wood type and image collection
  • Print on pre-made colorful gradient backgrounds
  • Learn basic typesetting and letterpress printing techniques
  • Receive guidance from Dan, our experienced printer
  • Take home 12 copies of their poster design plus a special name print
  • Have the option to trade prints with other workshop participants

We will streamlined the process by providing a variety of pre-printed color background sheets, allowing you to focus on creative typography and content while exploring traditional letterpress techniques.

Duration: 3 1/2 hours

What's included: All materials, expert instruction, and your completed prints

No prior experience necessary!

Drinks and light snacks will be provided.
