Project Overview
Artists from ReadyGoArt will host their unique Streetcorner Letterpress interactive project. These 100-year-old letterpresses produce 4x6 postcard-style prints with the push of a lever, and can be operated by people of any age or ability. The unique letterpress kiosk draws a curious crowd, who are then invited to print their own postcards with images and colors customized to your event theme
