Design with Type

Friday 17 April 9:30am - 11.30am and 1.30pm - 3.30pm THE ARMARIE ROOM, FOUNDERS HERITAGE PARK

$35 per person. Tickets required. Tickets available at thearmarieroom. com/printmaking-courses-nz/p/youthposter-design.

A hands-on poster design workshop for young creatives. Get inky fingers and explore the world of print in this playful workshop. Using our collection of wooden type, participants will design and print vibrant posters on our rare 1860 Albion Press—an impressive cast-iron machine operated with a crank and lever. The results are exciting, surprising, and completely original. Learn in a small, friendly group and take home a finished poster. Students bring a favourite quote or phrase (5–8 words) to personalise their design. Who’s it for? Ages 8+ who love art, design, and hands-on making.
