We’re pleased to announce the following classes for the Winter 2008 season. They include two one-day classes as well as two five-week series, all taught at Logos Graphics. Come back to our website soon for more information and class dates!


1 Day Letterpress: All About Paper

If you have ever wondered about the differences between letterpress papers, this is the class for you! We’ll answer such questions as:

  • How does one paper print differently from another?
  • Which papers take a letterpress impression better than others?
  • How does grain direction affect my printing?
  • Which papers are readily available vs. pre-ordering?
  • Cost comparison of papers?

Come to this one-day class and explore which papers are best for you, and try your own hand at testing several different types! We’ll provide samples of Rives BFK, Hannemühle, Crane’s Lettra, Somerset, and more for you to take home. Light snacks will be provided.

Class Fee: $40, includes one bound paper sample book; additional sample books available at $5 apiece

Date and Time: Saturday, November 17, 2007 | 10 am - 2 pm
