Adana workshop, Bovey Tracey. March 2020.

During the Journeyman exhibition at the Devon Guild of Craftsmen in Bovey Tracey, Nick and Ellen ran two workshops in the gallery space. This was the second day which made good use of the printing bike and the collection of Adana presses from the printshop in Bristol. The workshop included typesetting using lead type and printing short runs of small cards and bookmarks.
