Montserrat Hosts Letterpress Printmaking Weekend Workshop April 5 & 6

LETTERPRESS PRINTMAKING
with Brian Savignano
Sat. & Sun.  April 5–6, 9am–4pm

Students will learn the basics of hand typesetting, letterpress terminology and the fundamentals of letterpress printing. We will complete two projects, the first being a collaborative, group print as we gain a feel for the process. Students will apply what they have learned to complete the second project, a folded greeting card of their design. Those with recent letterpress experience at Montserrat will be given the option to devote more time to their second project. Materials will be provided, and each student will leave with a minimum of 12 greeting cards.

Prerequisite: beginners – none, intermediates – prior letterpress experience

Price: $175, non–credit
