Join Jami Heinricher for a brief history of Olympia’s letterpress print shop – The Sherwood Press – from its founding in 1940 to today. Then join in an open discussion on the meaning and importance of craft and the very unique journeys those in the crafts take to achieve mastery, self-sufficiency, relevance, and creative engagement in a world trying to drive human beings out of making and even thinking for ourselves.
Part of Community Print’s monthly Shop Talks series running through May 2026. These talks are free, but donations for the presenters are accepted.
Jami Heinricher is the owner, designer, and printer at The Sherwood Press, established in 1940 by founder Jocelyn Dohm.
