“As a Graphic Designer, this workshop really appealed to me. I learned so much about the history of letterpress and found a new appreciation for the art of print. Renee was encouraging and incredibly generous with her gorgeous studio and machinery. As a complete 'newbie' to print, she provided just enough hands-on help to get me started, and then stepped back to allow me the time and space to get super creative. I'd highly recommend this incredible workshop to anyone who loves typography, layout or has an interest in printing. I hope to attend many more print workshops at The Armarie Room!”

“This is the most wonderful way to immerse, create and learn from an amazing tutor who is a generous, kind and knowledgeable. I started out nervous, i don’t work in graphic design, but it didnt matter. The beautiful and historic equipment is a joy, it has so much personality. If you are thinking about it, stop. Just do it! You will have a terrific time and learn so much.”
