Opening tomorrow! Join us at at 7pm for a conversation with Anada Werner, author of the UDP chapbook PUNT (edited by Lee Norton), and Milo Wippermann. We’ll talk about short poems and letterpress printing and how the studio stab-stitched 500 chapbooks.

This conversation is an opening event for a new exhibition at Poets House called Autonomy in Practice: A Brief History of UDP Chapbooks. We couldn’t be more excited about having a curated selection of our archive on display along with some letterpress materials from our studio.
