Limited Places Available!
Have you ever thought of experimenting with printing, making your own books or zines? Are you curious to discover the art of letterpress printing with the help of an expert? Did you know that Sussex University has a working printing press that is being used to create unique publications?
On Monday 22 April, Oxford Printer Richard Lawrence will be running a letterpress masterclass in Arts B151. Whether you’ve never heard of letterpress printing before or you have already tried publishing your own work, this event is open to anyone who wants to learn more and view the Old Albion press housed at the University of Sussex.
There will be a Book/Zine launch afterwards (in the Arts B lounge area just outside the print room) where students who have been running independent print projects and experimenting with the Albion press will showcase and sell their print projects. There will also be an opportunity to suggest names for the press and to learn how to get involved with existing or new independent projects.
This event is organised by Harriet Rose: BA English.
This event is free, but booking is essential.
