ABOUT THE LETTERPRESS DEPOT:

The Letterpress Depot: a living museum of letterpress printing, typography, design, poetry and art – a working vintage letterpress printshop, with space for exhibits, demonstrations, workshops, events and meetings, as well as typographic research and printing projects – to be a resource available to the community.

Check out our Marketplace for posters sold in support of the Depot and to "buy" workshops. Even though the building is not ready, workshops are up and running around town. Let us know what you or your group wants to learn and we can accommodate. Past workshops can be found under News & Notes while upcoming ones will be also posted in Workshops. The Depot is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization. 

The depot itself has long attracted attention throughout the area, both for its architectural design and for its historic importance. “The Letterpress Depot” – a name that is inclusive for the community as well as an expansive metaphor for the artistic and historic destinations and journeys we expect our living museum to offer: ALL ABOARD!

with your donation we can stay on track!

We have raised $279,000 of our $550,000 goal. Help us finish construction and open the doors. Your donation is an investment in preserving this historic building, the future of letterpress printing, book arts, and our continued community involvement.

Our Mission:

The Englewood Depot’s (dba Letterpress Depot) mission is to give hands-on access to traditional letterpress equipment and other forms of book arts to allow the community to learn about, preserve, reimagine and redefine this beautiful art form for future generations. We aim to print with and for a diversity of voices, to reach out to those whose communities may have been marginalized, under-resourced or underserved. To accomplish these purposes, we will rehabilitate and preserve the historic Englewood Depot building which has its own stories to tell.
