Our crush on letterpressing superstar Saint Gertrude (aka Amy Constable) has never been a well kept secret, but we’re ready to bring you into the fold. Helping to preserve the old school art form, Saint Gertrude uses old letterpresses to create modern works of art. Not one to horde all the creative genius to herself, she is willing to teach us all the ways. Two lucky winners are invited to her Melbourne-based studio where she prints her own work as well as runs classes – for beginners through to full blown letterpress nerds.

The winners will get to attend a full day workshop that kicks off with a history of the letterpress process and a letterpress demonstration. You’ll head home weighed down in a swag of letterpress goodies that you have printed yourself, including an A4 letterpress print by a prominent Australian illustrator.

Class runs from 10am – 4pm at Little Gold Studios in Brunswick. Price includes lunch and refreshments.
