About this event
The National Print Museum is a living museum, where visitors are encouraged to roll up their sleeves and partake in the craft and stories of letterpress printing. Maintaining all our printing presses and typesetting machines in full working order allows us to not only preserve the objects themselves, but to also celebrate and safeguard the intergenerational knowledge and skills essential to telling the story of printing in Ireland and the wider world.
Free event, booking advised.
