1. Put on Your Printing Cap
Spend a morning in the Book Arts Lab. This workshop will provide participants the opportunity to set wooden type and print their own multi-colour broadside to commemorate the ACA's 50th Anniversary. You will also acquire a better appreciation for how some of the items in your own archives and special collections were produced. Instruction will be led by the lab's own Master Printer - Larry Thompson. Learn how type is set, inked and reacts to paper in the printing press. A rare opportunity to work in the busy lab on a project.
Cost includes a $10 materials fee. Limited to 15 participants
