The Southern Letterpress offers letterpress printing and design services. Through public events and workshops, they also offer education about the art and history of letterpress printing with the goal of making letterpress printing accessible and affordable to the Southeastern United States. Southern Letterpress has studios in St Pete, Florida and New Orleans, Louisiana.
The Southern Letterpress is composed of two separate women-owned businesses. Jessica Peterson operates the New Orleans press and Bridget Elmer operates the Gulfport, FL press. Our companies share resources and support each other. Jessica Peterson and Bridget Elmer met in 2007 in Tuscaloosa, Alabama while studying at the Masters in Fine Arts in the Book Arts Program at The University of Alabama, where they were both enrolled to expand their individual backgrounds in graphic design and book studies.
