Embrace spooky season and unleash your creativity at Bowne & Co.’s Halloween-inspired drop-in workshop on Saturday, October 12, 2024, from 12pm–2pm, at 207 Water Street, NYC.
Visit anytime between 12pm and 2pm for a free hands-on experience in crafting origami bats, and other spooky folded-paper creatures, along with Halloween-themed paper chains. For an extra thrill, skilled Bowne designers will be on hand to guide you through crafting your own letterpress-printed broadside posters using a 19th century printing press from the Seaport Museum’s working collection.
Don’t miss this opportunity to add a touch of spookiness to your seasonal decorations and learn more about the art of traditional letterpress printing. Anyone age 5 and up is welcome. All participants get to take home the items they create during the afternoon.
Admission is free, and pre-registration is encouraged, but walk-ups will be accommodated as possible. seaportmuseum.org/halloween-
