IPRC Letterpress Goodness!
Sunday, November 9th, 2008
Got a designer’s wet dream for ya, people. Some great stuff here. A while back I was trying to come up with some ideas for wedding invitations (I’m getting married next year). The usual hand-made stuff off my home printer (which is pretty decent) was just not going to cut it. I decided I wanted to learn how to use letterpress and take it up a notch.
In the hunt I came across an amazing Portland resource, the IPRC (Independent Publishing Resource Center). In their own words, “Since its inception in 1998 the center has been dedicated to encouraging the growth of a visual and literary publishing community by offering a space to gather and exchange information and ideas, as well as to produce work. The IPRC is an Oregon 501(c)(3) Nonprofit organization.”
