Strange Types & Odd Sorts

Strange Types & Odd Sorts: A peek into the world of print in Ireland, a collaboration between the National Print Museum and Fighting Words, documents the stories of retired printers and compositors and their experiences in a world of printing now far removed from today’s. To celebrate the launch of the book’s second edition, join some of the authors at the Museum for readings, stories and demonstrations of the Museum’s collection.

This event will occur on the ground floor of the Museum, where visitors will also find the Reception, Museum Shop, toilets, and Café. The ground floor is fully accessible to wheelchair users. Entry for wheelchairs is via the Café. Please note that this event will mainly be standing; there will be a limited number of fold-out seats available for those who need them.

This is a free event. Alternatively, by choosing a donation ticket to any amount, you would be contributing towards keeping DBF events accessible for all.

P lease note we may be capturing candid imagery at this event for use on our social media and website.
