In the workshop you first view book illustrations, prints and drawings. Then you’ll learn how to make an drypoint etching as you get to work with plexiglass, ink and a centuries-old etching press.
The Museum Plantin-Moretus is a place for encounter and collaboration. Lovers of books, typography and historic houses are all drawn here. Expertise is shared with other institutions and partnerships are formed.
The Museum’s temporary exhibitions focus on a succession of different themes. Specific aspects of the house, the Plantin-Moretus family, the output of the Officina Plantiniana... you can learn more about each of these subjects.
