Riso 101 Workshop: Intro to Riso Printing

Curious about Risograph printing but not sure where to start? This fun and friendly 3-hour workshop is the perfect introduction. You’ll learn how Riso works, explore layering and colour magic, and create your own two-colour A3 print to take home.

We’ll chat through the basics, show you the machine in action, and guide you through making a simple design using collage, drawing, or mark-making. No design experience needed – just bring your curiosity!

You’ll leave with:

🪿 Your own Riso prints (5 copies)

🪿 A solid understanding of how Risograph printing works

🪿 Inspiration for what to try next

All materials are provided, as well as refreshments. Beginners very welcome!

Important information about dates:

We are currently working on our 2026 calendar, and will be able to publish workshop dates as soon as we are settled in our new studio. Until then, you can purchase a workshop voucher (for yourself or as a gift), and get advanced access once we publish these dates! Our calendar will include at least 4 Riso 101 workshops, so there will be plenty of availability.

We use a sliding scale pricing model to keep Risograph printing accessible while fairly compensating our studio and artists. Choose the price that fits your situation—no need to provide proof, we trust you to choose honestly.

£45 - Supported Price: If finances are tight, choose the lower end of the scale.

£55 - Standard Price: If you can pay the full rate comfortably, choose this option.

£65 - Pay It Forward: If you’re able, paying at the higher end helps fund lower-cost spots for others.
