Signal-Return letterprint store unwraps for Eastern Market holiday shopping

Detroit's new letterprint shop, Signal-Return, opens its doors to the public Dec. 2. The Eastern Market storefront will sell hand-printed stationary, books, posters and more; sourced from independent producers across the world and right here in the D. Local artists include Bryan Baker, Susan Goethel Campbell, I.T.U., Leon Johnson, Don Kilpatrick III, Emily Linn, and Megan O'Connell.

Kicking off the new store, Leon Johnson will head a workshop introducing bookbinding and letterprinting for 10 artists from Friday, Dec. 2 thru Sunday, Dec. 4. And on Jan. 4, the writer and artist Alison Knowles will exhibit her array of books, poems and scores; as well as her recent experiments and manipulations with cyanotypes and prints.

Signal-Return will be open for good, from Wed.- Sat, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at 1345 Division St. in Eastern Market. Join their group on Facebook to keep abreast of all the updates -- and happy shopping this holiday season.
