QWERTY!
A Typewriter Festival
Saturday, June 27
12 pm to 5 pm
Clicky-clack, we are bringing typewriters back! In collaboration with Typewriter Connection, the Printing Museum is hosting a TYPEWRITER FESTIVAL to celebrate National Typewriter Day.
Experience the timeless beauty of typewriters as you test your speed and precision in the Typewriter Contest, type an original haiku, hear from typewriter experts, join in the collaborative process of writing “never-ending tales” on vintage typewriters, look for hidden gems in our scavenger hunt, and much more.
Local vendors and makers are offering typo-o-grams, original poetry, themed merch, retro treasures, hand-crafted greeting cards, and even fully working typewriters for sale. Guests can bring their own typewriter to show, share, use, or get an estimate for repair.
There’s something uniquely inspiring about the sound and feel of these classic machines!
Special guests include: Typewriter Connection, Typewriter Muse, Typin’ Pint, Retro Steno, heART.strokes, Kathie Studio, Typewriters Anonymous, Mo Types, THIRTY81 Press, and RISO Studio Arts.
General Admission is $15, or $12 for students/seniors.
