Word, Cut, Print!

During this workshop, children taking part will learn about and explore the basic principles of letterpress printing and discover how, through combining letterpress with tinkering and making, they could express themselves creatively in word and print. Using the Sizzix die-cutting machine you will cut out your own letters to create a poster, ink it by hand and print it on the proofing press! Includes all materials. This workshop is conducted on the ground floor of the Museum, which is wheelchair accessible via the Café entrance.

Children’s Workshop: 10:30-11:30, €15 per child (ages 8-12)
Family Workshop:
12:30-13:30, €25 per family (ages 4+, max 4 per family)

The experience in this museum was amazing! Better than I expected. It's really interesting to see so many different old print machines and how they worked. Our guide Liam made my day. He explained all the history to us. His English is so easy to understand. Also he is very kind and polite. I totally recommend a visit to this place.

The reviews say it all - excellent museum and Ciaran was a hoot. We enjoyed this museum immensely - probably the highlight of our few days in Dublin. Grabbed a takeaway coffee and smoothie from the neighbouring cafe which seemed very popular.
