One day letterpress printing workshops are now being offered in the "Mark Twain Room" in
the Historic Fourth Ward School Museum in Virginia City, Nevada.
Learn the basics of the 550+ year old art and craft of Letterpress Printing from Steve Robison, an experienced letterpress printer.
Be able to walk away with a special hand printed piece to share with your friends and family. And if you're really hooked, you can sign up for as many additional workshops as you want to refine your skills.
We ask that you bring a favorite quote to set in type (we'll supply the type!).
The workshop fee is $25 for nonmembers, $20 for Fourth Ward School Museum members, for one of the Saturday Workshops listed below. Each workshop will be from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm :
