The Hamilton Wood Type & Printing Museum in Two Rivers, Wisconsin is dedicated to the preservation, study, production and printing of wood type. New Impressions is an international, juried exhibition to showcase exploration and creativity with letterpress printing techniques. From this age-old tradition, we strive to challenge and inspire artists to continue the love of printing. 2024 is the 9th year of the New Impressions exhibition.

The jurors’ criteria for the exhibit included quality craftsmanship and creative original use of the medium. Artwork had to include at least one element of letterpress printing. The jurying process was anonymous. Jurors were Celene Aubry of Hatch Show Print, Naomi Kent of Ink Squasher, and Jim Moran, retired Master Printer and Collections Officer at Hamilton.
