At Big River Bindery we practice the art of the book: conserving and repairing books and paper items, making custom books and boxes for special occasions, and printing books and ephemera with custom designs using letterpress printing.
We use vintage bookbinding equipment, wood and metal type and antique presses, some over 100 years old. Workshops in letterpress printing and the book arts are listed under our Workshop tab.
Pint & Print:
Valentines Pressure Prints
Feb 8, 1:00 – 4:00 pm
Join us for this afternoon of printing and collage making. Pressure printing uses a flexible printing plate made of layers of paper and stickers to create thicknesses that print lighter and darker. It’s quick and easy and will be a fun way to make a customized valentines card.
