Are all the coolest people you know suddenly making Risograph zines (and posters, books, cards, and SO much more)?!

Now are you thinking “what even is Risograph printing?” Well, it’s like if a photocopier and screenprinting had a baby! You can create stencils by using digital or drawn images, or you can collage right on top of the machine bed, but the Risograph machine does the printing, and each color is printed as a separate layer. The process uses soy-based inks and creates minimal waste, making it an eco-friendly printing option. The results are full of vibrant colors and a beautiful grainy texture that's specific to Risograph. On top of that, it’s affordable, accessible, and versatile!

Check out our upcoming Risograph workshops to join the fun! Play with halftones, duotones, and CMYK using RISO with Corinne Teed @corinneteed, or use your Risograph prints to create 3D forms with Caroline Kern @carolinekernz. *ONLY ONE SPOT LEFT IN EACH* Link in bio.
