Chockablock Printing

On Saturday 22nd November we held an Open Day for the public to view and experience our evolving Hack / Maker Space at the Waiting Room. We had four different printing workshops with local creatives & members of the space.

We had block shape Fabric Printing with our Stitch & Bitch co-host and Hack Space co-ordinator Alex Davis. Badge Making with Jack Brigg-Miller who looks after our The Coffee Darkroom. Custom Screen Printing with Tom Armstrong, a painter and man about our who also looks Print space. Plus two types of Letterpress Printing. First up, Paul and Rob from the St Botolph’s Letterpress Studio set their Adana printer to create branded beer mats. Second up, T Y P O R E T U M aka Justin Knopp who runs a letterpress printing & design studio based in Coggeshall. He brought along a proofing press for folks to try with gloruoys G.F Smith Colorplan papers.

We’d like to thank all our workshops hosts. The event supported by the Craft Council‘s Make:Shift:Do - A programme of public events to experience hands on making - and G.F Smith.
