About Event

RISO 101 is a beginner-friendly workshop introducing the basics of Risograph printing , a vibrant and playful printing process somewhere between screen printing and photocopying.

In this workshop, participants will learn:

✦ how the Risograph machine works
✦ basic color separation
✦ how to prepare artwork for RISO
✦ how to print and layer colors on the machine

During the session, participants will create and print their own 3-color Risograph artwork directly from a laptop.

You are welcome to bring black-and-white drawings, photos, collages, or digital files to experiment with ✶

No prior experience needed — this workshop is open to artists, designers, writers, and anyone curious about print and independent publishing.

✦ Please note: Completion of this workshop (or prior Risograph experience elsewhere) is required before joining the Now Place RISO membership studio.

Participants will leave with a 20-30 copy of their own prints ✷
