Intro to Typesetting

Moveable type. It’s one of the first things you learn about in high school history classes: Johannes Gutenberg’s invention of the printing press started the Printing Revolution and suddenly images and text could be replicated and distributed to the masses (the Inlander thanks Mr. Gutenberg greatly). In this workshop, learn all about the process of typesetting with Spokane Print & Publishing Center member Pixie Carlson, a queer femme artist who began learning about letterpress during the pandemic. Come to class prepared with your favorite quote, lyric or line of a poem no longer than seven words. Might I suggest something in German to honor the guy who made it all possible?
