Things are getting harder for a craft struggling to stay alive.

A Lancaster-based group that does letterpress printing must vacate its building quickly, with no potential new home.

"I'm sad... I'm very tired," said Ken Kulakowsky, the president and founder of the .918 Club.

Kulakowsky also says he's disappointed in the school for forcing them to move out.

The group used a building on the Thaddeus Stevens College campus in Lancaster to teach letterpress printing since 2009.
