Come together to connect with others and express yourself through print. Choose a word or two to print on MCBA’s portable Provisional Presses. Take a print (or two) away with you and contribute one to a community collage poem.
Press Play is an annual open house that invites participants of all ages to experience letterpress printing and book arts through hands-on activities in MCBA’s studios. Activities are designed for beginners, experienced makers, and families.
