Winter Camp 2026 (7 to 12 years): Riso Calendar

This creative printmaking workshop invites young artists to explore the distinctive world of Risograph printing by designing and producing their own calendar.

Through guided design and printing, participants will discover the unique qualities of Riso while transforming their artwork into a colourful and functional calendar.
