The Letterpress Intensive workshop is offering an opportunity to explore letterform drawing through design and printing of pages of an abecedary or alphabet book. During this term-long workshop, participants will learn to draw and integrate letters with graphic translations of animal forms. The combined images will be cut onto linoleum blocks and printed on a proofing press. No printmaking or letterpress experience is required.

An informational meeting open to all will be held on Sunday, Sept 23, 2 to 3 pm in Baker room 21. At the end of this introductory session, attendees can decide if they would like to register to participate in this workshop. Subsequent sessions will be held on Sunday afternoons from 2 to 5 pm through the term. Faculty and staff are welcome to attend with students given priority for registration which will be limited to eight. All materials and equipment will be provided by the workshop. Anyone interested in more information should contact Won.K.Chung @ Dartmouth.edu.
