November at Robert Smail’s

The staff of Robert Smail’s Print­ing Works in Inner­lei­then will be run­ning a prac­ti­cal “users guide” to the Adana print­ing press on Sat­ur­day 2 Novem­ber. The work­shop will cov­er all aspects of using and car­ing for an Adana press, includ­ing use­ful tips on type­set­ting and machine main­te­nance. It’s an ide­al oppor­tu­ni­ty to learn about these great hob­by press­es.

The fol­low­ing Sat­ur­day, 9 Novem­ber, Smail’s are run­ning ‘Let­ter­press Work­shops’ — this is an ‘oppor­tu­ni­ty for any­one with an inter­est in typog­ra­phy and print­ing to come and spend a day in the Nation­al Trust for Scotland’s Robert Smail’s Print­ing Works and learn about the craft of let­ter­press print­ing.’

Spaces for both work­shops are lim­it­ed and so book­ing is essen­tial: for more details and how to book vis­it Robert Smail’s web­site.
