Spread the word with your hand-made posters. In this introductory letterpress course, learners will combine text and simple image techniques, making posters to express opinions, share messages, invite others to events, or to share your favourite quote or song lyric. Letterpress printing uses wood and metal type to impress the text into the paper, a simple but effective printing process.
