Composing a text
The museum mentions setting lead type as an activity. Ask how a line is built up and how it is made ready for printing. The supervision available determines what you can do yourself.
Printing and paper
Working machines and making paper by hand are part of what is on offer. That links the medium with the print: paper is not just a background but part of the process.
Looking and doing with children
A children’s print shop and a quiz are mentioned. Ask which activities are available on the day of your visit; demonstrations and group programmes may have their own times.
Before you go
Regular opening Tuesday to Friday afternoons. Groups visit by appointment; do not expect demonstrations at the weekend, when the museum is closed.
