to the BOWERBOX PRESS OPEN HOUSE!

The Bowerbox Press Open House - May 2nd from 11-6. Come and check out my hundred-year-old Colt’s Armory printing press (is it the only one in Baltimore? quite possibly!), my growing collection of type, and my newest work. Prints and cards will be available for sale.
If you’ve never seen a letterpress in action, this is your chance! If you have, come anyway!
