Let's make letterpress cards! We'll walk through the design and typesetting processes of letterpress printing. A selection of designs will be typeset and ready to print on the Challenge Proof Press and mini Kelsey Platen Press. Letterpress is a historic way of printing that involves setting individual letters and images into one of our century old presses. Learn about this fascinating process while making pre-set greeting cards.

  • Ages 12+ are welcomed, if accompanied by a ticket holding adult.
