Angles & Curves: Modular Letterpress - Tues, Oct 20, 2026

Angles & Curves invites participants to PLAY with letterpress in unexpected ways using P22 Blox modular letterforms and the Rotary Angle Chase, a unique tool that allows type to be positioned and printed at virtually any angle within a press bed.

After an introduction to the tools, techniques & possibilities, participants will experiment with shape, pattern, layering, rotation, and composition—letting the process lead to unexpected results.

There will be plenty of time to explore, print, and PLAY, with participants creating a collection of prints to take home and exchange with one another.

Some letterpress experience is helpful, but curious beginners are absolutely welcome!
