Brooke Heilman

Director, Marketing & Communications

Blattner Company

Our communications and marketing team enjoyed a private print party at Bruno Press where we experienced the craft of classic letterpress printing and got some lessons in loving your career at the same time. Under Mary’s careful and colorful guidance, we typeset custom team posters and took turns printing copies on a classic, carefully preserved, century-old letterpress. Mary had our team laughing and learning the whole time – she’s just the right blend of educator and entertainer!

 

Bruno Press is also an impressive working print shop. The artistry that goes into each handcrafted, printed project was impressive and seeing the equipment in action gave our team a whole new sense of respect for that era, and for the artistry and artwork still crafted by Mary and her team at Bruno Press today. If you’re looking for a non-typical team building activity, this is a unique hands-on experience that your team will relish. You will step back in time, get a lesson on a classic career with heritage and heart and create something beautiful together.

CORPORATE RETREAT

Masters Students from SCSU

The whole class and professor showed up for an evening of creating personalized prints in which we got to create our own carved linoleum blocks. We had a blast hangin’ in the shop and learning from Mary, she talked about the origin of her business - all the way through the inception of the greeting card line to many of her current projects. It was refreshing to get out of the classroom and learn from a community leader and business owner.

Owner of Red Headed Creamery

We had a blast at Bruno Press with Mary during our Print Party! The Redhead Creamery team got to create our very own custom posters, and it was so much fun! Mary was an amazing guide, and we appreciate her expertise and creativity.

The whole experience was “kickass”, and we highly recommend it to anyone who wants to tap into their creative side and have a great time. We loved seeing our our work come to life on the posters, and it was awesome to learn more about the printing process.

Thank you so much to Mary at Bruno Press for making this experience unforgettable! We can't wait to come back for more printing fun!

40th Birthday printing party was unique, hilarious, and lots of memories shared and new ones made! It was a very cool event in a very cool shop. I recommend and would do it again.

INDIVIDUAL PARTY

Alison U.

Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Minnesota

The hands-on experience that Mary Bruno provided for Boys & Girls Club members was amazing. Mary kept them all fully engaged and interested in learning about the process of printing. Being able to watch each member proudly bring their own poster home with them was the perfect ending to a great field trip! I highly recommend you plan your next field trip to Bruno Press!

She Ascends:

a women led hiking group

Creating a print with Mary Bruno was so much more than a print party.  We came from all over MN to try something new for She Ascends.  We learned, we laughed and we listened to Mary share her story and passion.  We not only created a one of a kind print, we connected while we created art together.
