Introductory course in hand setting and printing in Venice

With Damocle Edizioni

Pierpaolo Pregnolato, founder of Damocle Edizioni, dedicates a three-hour workshop to whoever is curious to dive into the fascinating atmosphere of an old-fashioned printing shop. If you have a favourite quote or aphorism, Pierpaolo will study the project with you and help you select the most appropriate font. He will then show you how to hand-set the movable types on the composing stick, which is inked with vegetable oil inks. The text is printed on a sheet of handcrafted paper using an original Saroglia printing press, and you will have a very personal memento of a unique experience to take back home.
