Wednesday Night Open Studio: Bookbinding, Letterpress, and Printmaking (April 30)

April 30th from 6 - 9PM

Do you have a project in mind or in progress? Our teachers, tools, and equipment are available to help your ideas come to fruition. Join our shared space with other creators, swap stories and ideas, and see your hard work pay off in your finished product.

This open studio time is independent of our monthly rentals. All hand tools and equipment are available. Blocks and plates, as well as papers, are available for purchase. 

Equipment and table space are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis. Please be mindful of the fact that we are a shared space and operate best when coordinating with classmates. Cleanup of your used tools and stations are required. Vandercook, C&P, and Challenge Gordon letterpresses require an additional $15 fee for every hour of operation (running of the press).

This is not a class, however staff and teachers will be able to answer your questions and troubleshoot equipment use. Studio artists are expected to have taken one of our classes or bring prior experience in their art. You do not need to be enrolled in our monthly studio rental program to take this class. If you are a monthly studio artist who would like to sign up, please contact us at contact@frederickbookarts.org before doing so.
