Some products from our online shop!
We’re doing another collaborative risograph calendar! We’ve printed these every holiday season for 7 years now and we feel lucky to have the creative folks we know and love and print with (and some new friends too!) participate. For those of you who are new here: every year we take submissions from local artists to create a vibrant 2 color risograph printed and bound calendar. The theme of the calendar this year is KEEPSAKES!
Why preorder this calendar? Preordering helps us gauge how many copies of this calendar we need to make and order the necessary supplies—plus you save $10! Preorders will be available until 11/15 and will ship late November/early December with time to arrive before the holidays. We ship anywhere in the US, or you can select free local pickup—we’ll contact you when these are available!
We design this calendar with printmakers, designers, riso nerds, and print collectors in mind—you can trim the artwork out to keep and frame (12 beautiful prints!), and we include color combinations, special inks and papers, and other extras that can serve as a swatchbook and inspiration for any future projects!
You can find out more info about this calendar here, including how to participate and submit work, examples of past calendars, and more!
Thank you so much for your support as we print the 6th iteration of this calendar!

Want to make a zine but don’t know where to start? Got a good idea you want to share? Still not totally sure what a zine is? You’re not alone!
Getting started on something is hard! That’s why we put together a kit with some of the essentials, from templates to collage materials and tools—basically anything you might need to get started making zines. It’s addicting—you’ve been warned!
Included in this kit:
A zine making guide
4 blank one page zines
A handful of collage scraps
Paper ephemera & misprints
Some colorful papers
Transfer type
1 bone folder
1 zine button
1 one page zine template
A collection of zine prompts
& more?!
Get a kit and get to making stuff!
It’s a veritable grab bag of my test prints, random bits, quasi mess-ups, thrift store finds, and debris from past gallery installations. Each pack is filled with a STACK of STUFF (riso patterns, zine pages, prints, buttons, cards, play money?) containing items didn’t quite make it to prime time (or are perhaps past their prime) and are ready for you to reuse and enjoy! GRAB YOURSELF A SCRAP PACK!
Each pile comes in an 8.5x11 sleeve with a riso printed sticker seal. Items in each pack vary, but promise to pack a PUNCH of goodness.
Give the gift of Riso!
We put together fun gift packs for anyone wanting to gift a Riso Basics workshop! This pack includes a workshop gift certificate for any of our open Riso Basics classes, a limited edition print, bookmark, print guide, and of course confetti.
