About the Conference

This year, the conference you know and love will be completely different!

In an effort to bring more play, more organic skill-sharing, and more togetherness to the conference and printers of all kinds, we present PRINT TOWN, where, over the course of two days in September, you’ll design and execute two prints which we’ll then exchange and hang around St. Louis. The teams are to be determined, as is the theme, but the weekend will stretch your boundaries of what can be made in a short time with your fellow printers.

All experience levels are welcome. Teams will be a mix of experience levels.

Capacity is limited, so we encourage you to reserve your spot early. It’s going to be a blast, and will hopefully help us regain some of what we’ve been missing these pandemic years.


This year marks the seventh consecutive culmination of combined collaboration by @ladiesofltrprs, @centralprintstudios, and @firecrackerpress. We are excited and look forward to seeing your faces in September!
