Bright colors! Weird textures! Happy little imperfections! Riso season is upon us 🌈✨

Never touched a Risograph before? First-Time Risograph is your introduction to the wonderfully weird world of Riso. You’ll learn your way around the machine, play with scanning and image-making techniques, layer bold colors, and make your own posters, prints, zines, and whatever else your Riso-loving heart desires.

No experience needed. Just bring your ideas and a willingness to embrace a little perfectly imperfect print magic. 💫

And good news for the Riso-curious: we’ve got THREE chances to take First-Time Riso this Fall, including two starting in just a few weeks! 👀

🌈 Thursdays, September 10-October 8  ⏰ 6:30-9:30pm 🎨 with Junko Okada-Brown

💥 Mondays, September 14-October 5 ⏰ 6:30-9:30pm 🎨 with Marylu Herrera

✨ Thursdays, October 15-November 12  ⏰ 6:30-9:30pm 🎨 with Junko Okada-Brown

And for the folks already familiar with Riso, check out our intermediate and advanced options (new additions to the catalog!!) 👀
