In this five-hour workshop, David and Juliet offer a comprehensive introduction to letterpress printing in their London studio. The session begins with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee and a brief overview of the health and safety.
Participants will then learn all about the history of letterpress, and get the creativity flowing with some examples. Attendees are encouraged to sketch their ideas on paper, experimenting with different styles before a detailed demonstration of setting up the type for printing.
Next, learn to lock up the type and conduct a test print before it's time to get to work! Participants can create their own prints, experimenting with colour and shapes to bring their perfect print to life.
Throughout the session, David and Juliet provide expert guidance, ensuring a comprehensive and engaging experience for all.

David and Juliet are wonderful hosts, generous with their time and sharing the subtle skills required to do any kind of print work. Had a wonderful day in their bright studio space doing letterpresses. I would highly recommend and go again with great pleasure.

We had such a lovely day with David and Juliet as our first experience with letterpress. They taught us the basics and then we were let loose to explore their amazing collection of type. They were very welcoming and helpful, giving us lots of creative ideas for how to take our prints to the next level. 10/10 experience!!
