    New for 2026: Book a Private Letterpress Experience Day

    A hands‑on creative session, perfect for small groups, friends, families, teams and creative collectives.

    If you're looking for a unique group experience, Milestone Studios offers private, 2.5hr letterpress workshops for groups of 2–6 people. These sessions are suitable for all ages 12+.

    You’ll be working in our Peak District studio on a 200‑year‑old Columbian Printing Press, using antique wooden type faces. Letterpress is officially classed as an endangered craft in the UK, and these workshops give you rare access to historic tools and slow, tactile making.
