The printing press has played a part in protest and politics from its very beginning. Broadsides and handbills spread the word before Twitter and TikTok, and the Declaration of Independence was distributed by printers to every colony.


Come print with antique wood type on a working letterpress and take home a protest poster that you printed yourself!


Chris Moore is a printmaker, glassblower, physicist, and data scientist based in Arlington, MA.
