About

Let’s get small! Learn the basics of letterpress printing while working with the classic form of seventeen syllable poems. Bring your own haiku or choose from those provided. You will learn the language, tools, and materials of letterpress along the way. Set the type and print enough copies to exchange with others.

Instructors:
Ellie Mathews and Carl Youngmann operate The North Press in Port Townsend, where they specialize in designing and printing poetry broadsides, including haiku.  They are excellent instructors, knowledgeable and patient and have gotten rave reviews from students at the BARN.  

This class was originally Letterpress Boot Camp. It counts toward obtaining Member fob access to the letterpress equipment.

Please Note: A $10 materials fee will be added when you register.

Please feel free to bring a bag lunch. BARN has a refrigerator you can store your lunch in.
