The Cariboo Sentinel Printing Press Revival Project is an initiative to revive Barkerville's letterpress and relief printing equipment on-site and support Cariboo artist-historians in development. Twelve artists, one for each month of the year, will have the opportunity to hone their skills by exploring contemporary and historic techniques that can be utilized with our printing equipment while creating unique stationery and art prints for you to enjoy.
By purchasing a subscription to the project, a limited-run print will be mailed to you each month in 2021. Each print will vary in size, style, colour, artist, and theme, but all will be suitable for use as a greeting card or small framed artwork. All twelve works will be designed by local artist-historians who work in Barkerville Historic Town & Park and printed on antique presses in Barkerville’s Cariboo Sentinel Print Shop.
Note: no items will be mailed in January, and two items will be mailed in February. If you purchase a subscription after the first month has begun, you will be mailed all the monthly artworks that have been issued to date. Postage is include in the listed price of the subscription.
