St Bride Foundation

St Bride Foundation is one of London’s hidden gems. Housed in a beautiful Grade II listed Victorian building, St Bride Foundation was originally set up in 1891 to serve the burgeoning print and publishing trade of nearby Fleet Street, and now has a contemporary audience of designers, printmakers, typographers and history lovers who visit it to enjoy a regular programme of events and workshops.

Join a tour of the building where you will learn all about the history of print and see historical pieces in their collection. Take a one day workshop in letterpress or wood engraving and create something beautiful. Attend one of their talks from a range of fantastic speakers who are experts in print and design.

Rooms are available to hire for corporate and personal events. They range from comfortable meeting spaces to the opulent Salisbury Room and elegant Bridewell Hall, and there is a space to suit every occasion, from lectures to board meetings, conferences to wedding ceremonies.
