We are an Idaho non-profit organization focused on providing quality education in printmaking, book arts, and independent publishing. Our organization seeks to educate the public about media literacy and the benefits of independent print media in a digital world. To accomplish this, we provide affordable and accessible education with access to printing, letterpress, and book-making equipment for individuals and organizations.

“I don’t own this knowledge, it is simply my turn to carry it.” - anonymous

This is a well known sentiment in the letterpress community. Independent publishers and printmakers are idealistic, often embracing collaboration and sharing essential tools and resources. At Open Letter Collective we extend this sense of solidarity to include those who don’t typically have access to printmaking. Our studio welcomes students, writers, activists, organizations (and anyone who has a desire to learn!) into the printshop, enabling them to create unique and important messages.
