Running a community print workshop which is pretty much everything we inspire to be\, we can't wait for this talk. We'll be hearing about all aspects of their print workshop\, from screen printing through to letterpress and even Risograph. If we're lucky we might also get an insiders glimpse into the world of the John Jarrold Museum in Norwich\, where many of the team learned the basics of letterpress printing. On top of that\, we'll be providing a practical print demo with designs that PttP are bringing down with them. As usual we'll be using our Adana 8x5\, but we're pleased to say that we'll also be screen printing! We'll have a lot to cram in\, so don't be late!
