Little Letterpress - September 5
Advertisement
Instructor: Henry Gepfer
Skill Level: Beginner/All
Engage with the historic process of letterpress printing on a very small (3 x5) platen press. This once-industrial process has been embraced by artists in the past few decades and is a great tool for fine artists, designers and hobbyists alike.
In this course, you’ll learn the basic anatomy of a table-top platen press, how to prepare the press, compose and set type and print a small-format idea on a 3” x 5” size or smaller – think postcard, calling card or business card size! This class is a low-pressure introduction to letterpress for anyone who doesn’t mind getting their hands dirty.
All materials are included in the tuition.
