How to turn your creative passion into a career: take your first steps on this relaxed and welcoming workshop at The Arienas Collective in Edinburgh led by Laura Ogilvie Jones coaching 

How to turn your creative passion into a career: first steps

In this workshop you&rsquo;ll learn all about printing with traditional materials, in the same way that books and newspapers were originally printed with vintage metal and wood type.&nbsp;

Choose to make greetings cards, postcards or bookmarks with your own personalised message. You may want to bring along a short quote or sentiment, a sentence is perfect, but we&rsquo;ll have plenty of ideas on hand to inspire you too.

You&rsquo;ll set your chosen metal type and print it on one of our Adana tabletop presses. These portable machines are perfect for the hobby printer and a great way to get started in letterpress printing. We&rsquo;ll show you the basics of how to set the press up for printing, how to register your print perfectly and how to clean everything down at the end of the session.&nbsp;

There will also be chance to play with some of our wooden type and coloured inks to print initials and short words.<hr fr-original-style="" style="border-color: var(--border-muted); border-style: solid; clear: both; user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;">
