Letterpress printing is a dirty, messy, and time-consuming challenge that will frustrate you with its tediousness, and weight. The rewards come in the forms of the prints coming out of the press, and the ways in which you meet other makers and learn more about the process.

@KLeuner @SantaClaraUniv @SantaClaraCAS @scuenglish @SCU_Library Looks like an excellent event! Do you think any students might want to help with letterpress demos for an hour or two at our Wayzgoose April 18?

Congrats to SCU Letterpress! And what good taste in having the poster from our Wayzgoose last month on the wall behind the press!

[Kirstyn Leuner, PhD @KLeuner]

SCU Letterpress had our debut open house yesterday, and it was a packed house. Students, faculty, staff, community printers, master bookmakers, and our donor printed text messages together. Encore! #dh_scu #letterpress
