Type Sort Party!

Calling Spudnik Members! Volunteers! Type Enthusiasts! Spudnik Press Cooperative is hosting the “Type Sort Party” of the century.

Just what is a Type Sort Party? It’s a chance to hang out with fellow print people and help whip our letterpress area into shape. We’ve recently acquired a whole new type cabinet of lead type, bags of unsorted spacing and brand new type still wrapped up in brown paper and twine. We have new california job cases to replace drawers that don’t fit in our cabinet. And after hosting dozens of classes and workshops, more than a few drawers are a little out of sorts. Literally.

Many hands make light work. This Type Sort Party will allow us to tidy up our supplies and pave the way for a letterpress studio that is more efficient and easier to use.

Why should you join the fun? First of all, it is an opportunity to get to know fellow Spudnik friends and family. Second, we need your help in making Spudnik the best it can be!Third, we are making this the fanciest Type Sort Party be providing plenty of drinks and a smorgasbord of snacks! Finger foods and lead type don’t play well, so we’re getting creative by making sure ALL of the snacks are on skewers! What more could you want?

No experience necessary. Please RSVP to Studio Manager, Nicolette Ross at info@spudnikpress.org.
