The day starts off with a 45 minute tour of the museum and instruction on using a sign press. The majority of the workshop consists of printing with wood type from a large collection available in the pressroom at the museum. Clean-up begins at 4 pm and the day finishes up at 5 pm. Lunch is on your own, and there are many restaurants nearby or you can pack your own and eat here at the museum.
