Letterpress – Summer Session (CLASS_05). Letterpress – Summer Session – is a comprehensive five week course focusing on the traditional methods of letterpress printing. Students can learn the basics of handsetting metal type, how to make a woodcut or photopolymer plate, mixing ink by hand, and learn the ins and outs of choosing paper. Our Vandercook printing presses and antique platen presses will be available for use. Each student will create an editioned piece of their design to exchange with all students, so everyone leaves the class with a small portfolio of fine prints! No prior experience needed. Can you think of a better way to spend a Summer evening?

DEADLINE – JUNE 8th – space is limited.
