My name is Lori and I’m a UW-Madison studio art grad, class of ’97. I hadn’t had any experience with letterpress, so in 2007 I took a weekend class at Evanston Print and Paper and loved it. I also was fortunate to find an older gentleman in my area who used to teach printing classes. He was very helpful in teaching me more letterpress basics. I bought my 1st press, and several more since. Currently, I do most of my printing on my Showcard press in my WI basement printshop using wood and metal type.
