The Warringah Printmakers
Studio offers a cool place to hang out and get your fingers inked up whenever
you decide to visit the ever-friendly land down under. Located in Many Vale,
which is a northern NSW suburb of Sydney, this place has more than one could hope
for if they want to get in some printing time.
It’s a non-toxic shop with sizeable pressbeds and facilities for etching, photo-based work,
and monoprints. They have a full schedule of term classes(the next term starts
in early October) and short, 2-day workshops. Press rentals are available, but require an
orientation and, as can be expected, they’d like you to become a member of
their fine establishment, so there are Very reasonable annual memberships
available.
A surprise I discovered was the links this group has with
grants and residencies in not only Australia, but Dublin, Quebec and Finland.
They also provide a listing of galleries, other printmaking studios in the area
and a list of printmaking suppliers. All in all it’s just the type of place to
get connected with for everything inked up.
The studio includes an exhibition space and they have
regular exhibits of the members and exchange exhibitions with other printmaker
groups, so send them a proposal and get connected. Access their website and download their membership application at http://www.printstudio.org.au
In addition, outside the lovely Manly Vale neighborhood, there are nearby
beaches and certainly plenty of cultural activities in the spectacular city of Sydney, situated just to
the south so you can't go wrong here, my fellow printmakers. Just go!
