Intro to Letterpress Jan. 28

January 28, 2012 from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm

Learn to set movable lead type and print on a table-top hand press in the IPRC print shop. You’ll learn the vocabulary of printing and typesetting while getting a feel for this beautiful and historical process. Leave the class with a printed card and the satisfaction that comes with using 100-year-old equipment! Successful completion of this one-day class allows IPRC members access to open studio print hours so you can keep on printing!

Bring something for lunch, or lunch $ and an idea of what to print 25 words or less is best.
