Two days of great creative fun. Spike is such an enthusiast for Letterpress which he explained and demonstrated so well throughout the course. The original equipment was a joy to use. I created a print of a favourite quote which my family and friends have enjoyed receiving copies of. Very much recommend this course. Thank you 😃

What a fantastic day. Spike was very patient and explained each process clearly. The equipment I had access to was amazing, especially being allowed to work on their huge press. There’s a very expansive collection of fonts to choose from too. I completed a large design in three colourways in my day in the studio and am absolutely delighted with the results. Highly recommended, I will definitely be booking again.
