Lancaster Print Crawl 2026

Join us for the Print Crawl, a delightful walk around Lancaster where participants will create and unveil this year’s artisan poster! 🎨

Important: You must reserve a blank poster to participate in the crawl! You can:

• Purchase a poster in advance and show your receipt to pick it up on the night of the crawl.
• Buy a poster on the night of the event (not recommended as we often sell out!).

✨ Special Offer: If you purchase a 2026 t-shirt or tank top, you’ll receive a free poster to join the Crawl!

This is a rain or shine event! In case of rain, we will provide clear sleeves to protect your poster as you explore the town. 🌧️

The Print Crawl takes place on the first Friday in September from 5-9 PM. Pick up your poster at the designated registration table in Ewell Plaza starting at 4 PM. Print shops will open at 5 PM. Your poster will include a map to guide you to various print shops, including:

• Screen printing
• Letterpress printing
• Stamping
• Laser cutting
• Riso
• 3D printing
• Vinyl sticker graphics

The entire crawl is approximately 1 mile (one way) from start to finish.

💰 The event operates on a pay-what-you-can basis, ranging from $0-$30. You can also donate at FORCEpkg during the event or through our GoFundMe campaigns to support:

• A graphic design student at Pennsylvania College of Art & Design
• A design/printing student at Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology (Donate here)

📸 Professional photos will be taken throughout the night for future marketing purposes.
