Fourth Friday Open Studios: Book Beetle tabletop printing

Join us for Open Studio!

Stop by to try your hand with a movable type printing press in action, or just observe and enjoy getting to know one very special area of the library. 

Participants will have the chance to ink and pull their own prints and take them home. No printing experience is necessary.
