About the Workshop:

This in-person workshop is taught by CBA instructor Sarah Nicholls.

Join us for a weekend-long inky experiment in printing. Students will combine the traditional, tactile printing method of letterpress with the modern, vibrant, and somewhat "imperfect" quality of Riso printing to create unique, layered, and visually interesting prints. We will push the boundaries of both techniques through experimentation with color, texture, and design elements, and explore the differences between the two techniques. Students will make improvisational prints using found materials that they bring with them, and the printshop’s collections. At the end of the weekend we will bind together a simple collaborative zine of our experiments to share and take home. 


Required Materials:

  • Low relief collage materials such as:
    • Fabrics with texture
    • Lace
    • Embroidery
    • Found objects that can be scanned
    • Plant materials
    • Buttons
    • Ribbon
    • Bubble wrap
    • Stickers
    • Stencils

All other materials will be provided by Center for Book Arts at no additional cost.

Works Great!!
Color: 5-in-1 Black & Silver, Size: Rechargeable Set
This is an amazing product! At this price point, I didn’t expect it to perform as well as it did. I have used it to open 4 different bottles of wine, and it worked really well. I docked one star because there is no outward charge status indicator (e.g. an LED to show charging, charged, or needs charging). A nit pick perhaps, but I find it an inconvenience.
