About this event
Discover the joys of Risograph printing, a process that combines screen printing and photocopying to produce prints with a cool and distinctive look. In this hands-on Soapbox workshop, participants will design and print their postcards with three to four colors. Using a mix of illustration, drawing, and collage, you'll craft a unique postcard design and bring it to life using our 2-color printing in a single pass MZ790 U Risograph printer, which we lovingly call Theresa! You will bring home a set of custom-printed postcards featuring your unique design!
Please note: We require all visitors to the Soapbox to wear masks, regardless of their vaccination status. The instructor reserves the right to ask you to leave if you do not comply.
