Recently, a couple of us flommists made our way to San Francisco Center for the Book to dive into letterpress printing.
SFCB offers over 400 workshops, exhibitions and events each year – this includes TypeThursdaySF (hosted by even mor flommists) – so we had to give it all a taste.
Mercy Lagusa and I managed to print on a Vandercook – combining type and elements from SFCB’s studio.
And, of course, the inspiration for our poster design came from an unexpected four hour commute into San Francisco – closed freeway blocked our route.
Mercy came up with ‘Not Today,’ cause we were determined to make it to our class.
Take a workshop! Info here.
