Open Access

Wild Press offers open access studio time for risograph print projects. To print you must first complete an induction to familiarise yourself with the studio space & equipment. This can be via our regular group inductions or added prior to your print session. The studio is then available to book by the hour. During this print session you’ll have access to the studio facilities to print your project with our technician at hand to help if needed.
