Make a Riso Poster

Step inside the world of Khali Balak Men RISO and make something you'll want to hang on the wall.

Risograph printing has a personality all its own — punchy colours, visible grain, slightly-off registration, and the kind of happy accidents no screen can replicate. In this hands-on session, you'll learn how the machine works, then design and print your own two-colour poster, layer by layer.

Teens will love the immediacy of it: choose your colours, build your layers, pull your print, and watch the surprise appear. Parents and older siblings are welcome to work alongside them — this is a workshop built for making together, not watching from the side. Come with an idea or come with nothing at all; both work.

No experience needed. All materials provided. Everyone leaves with their own Riso-printed poster — perfect for framing, gifting, or arguing over who gets to keep it.
