Such a great abs creative space! Love the craftsmanship and history of the extensive type library and letterpress equipment. We took our staff for a fun creative day and everyone really enjoyed it. So much awesome print history and modern creativity under one roof and it’s all run by an amazing crew. Can’t wait to get back!
What a surprise treasure! Fascinating history of not only wood type printing but others such as lino type. Staff are extremely knowledgeable and easy to learn from. Many old and new prints to see, some to purchase. Truly a living active museum; a wonderful archive of this graphic art form and its tools.
Preservation of woodblock printing is detrimental to the history of printing. I hope this museum survives for years to come.nDigitizing fonts is very creative for this 21st century although it is not as hands on as woodblock and ink.nInk still comes from the octopus, right?
The place is huge inside! Extensive exhibits. Definitely worth a visit especially since it only costs $5. The museum store probably has THE most unique Two Rivers souvenirs you are likely to find anywhere. Exceptionally friendly and informative staff.
Such wonderful, friendly staff. My husband and I especially enjoyed an up close view of several old Linotype machines and chatting with one of their volunteers - a retired physicist - who was so informative and personable. Thanks for making it a fun winter day in Two Rivers.
