Introduction to Letterpress Day

Join us for a hands-on, one-day workshop that opens the door to the enchanting world of letterpress printing.
Led by talented artist and experienced printmaker Jeremy Speck, this session offers a welcoming and creative introduction to the traditional craft of letterpress. You'll learn how to work with wooden type, set your own text by hand, and operate our vintage presses to create bold, graphic prints. As you explore the creative process, Jeremy will guide you through the steps while encouraging playful experimentation with layout and design. By the end of the day, you'll walk away with a small collection of your own unique letterpress prints and a solid understanding of how to use the studio's presses. Perfect for beginners, design enthusiasts, and anyone curious about typography and printmaking techniques.
