Preserving letterpress printing history at the Lancaster Heritage Center Museum Print Shop in Lancaster County, PA
The .918 Club brings together the volunteers of the Heritage Center Museum Print Shop to share ideas and suggestions concerning the educational demonstration. We meet monthly to provide a gathering place for people with an interest in letterpress printing, to schedule volunteers to operate the Print Shop, and to provide a place for anyone interested in learning about letterpress printing or developing the skills to become a volunteer in the Museum Print Shop.
Through our regularly scheduled demonstrations we educate the public about the history of printing while providing a working letterpress job shop to fulfill the printing needs of the Heritage Center of Lancaster County, Inc.
