Come watch The Big Tuna (a very large printing press) in action printing giant woodblock prints. Try your hand at some tiny prints on The Anchovy (a very tiny printing press).
Big Ink is a traveling print workshop featuring a VERY LARGE printing press called The Big Tuna. This year, Spokane is on Big Ink's tour, coming all the way from Maine and doing print workshops as they travel the country on their way here. The Big Tuna is capable of printing blocks up to 40 x 96 inches and is a lot of fun to watch in action. The general public is invited to come watch The Big Tuna in action as well as take away a souvenir print from The Anchovy (a very tiny press).
