Join us for an immersive introduction to letterpress printing! Students will learn to hand set lead and wood type using a Vandercook proof press, choosing the type and exploring antique cuts and ornaments to print your short phrase or poem.  We will also cover how to ink the press, lock up the press bed with type, set up for printing, clean the press and learn multiple troubleshooting techniques. Using the two presses in the studio, everyone will print a small edition and learn from helping each other on press. No experience necessary - all are welcome!
