Love Letterpress Weekend Workshop

Love Letterpress!
Discover the addictive world of letterpress on this weekend course where you can print posters, cards, postcards, beer mats, & simple books.
You can also letterpress print on existing prints, your paintings or drawings, or add type to (for example) old maps, photographs, wrapping paper etc. Anything flat!
Using a proofing press, large Hopkinson press and a small Adana press you will learn how to work the presses, compose & set type & print using our collection of wooden and metal type.
We will also play with printing without using a press, using some very large wooden type.
Come and get type high!

Suitable for all - no previous print or letterpress print experience needed.
