WORDS OF COURAGE

Founded in 1999, Springtide Press is located in Tacoma, Washington. We design, print and bind artist books, broadsides and ephemera incorporating letterpress printing and handmade paper. Small finely-crafted editions and one-of-a-kind books explore historical topics, popular culture and typography from a unique perspective. Our shop motto, "where we always print damp" recognizes the Pacific Northwest as a fine place to print, where the damp climate helps make a good impression... We're in an exciting period of growth, embracing hope as action - with intent. We're taking the time and putting in the energy to understand what inclusivity can look like at PiP. The power of the press belongs to those who have one, and we strive to share that power with more people... We bring people together by using old printing presses to amplify new voices, share knowledge, and spark creativity.
