COVID19  UPDATE: Until further notice 
The Studio is open to press bookings by individual artists working alone or with a family member with whom they usually reside - Book online as usual.
The Current Exhibition is Virtual Only - Please take the time to view these beautiful works by Joan Welsh. Find the Video - Press button above.
  All Workshops are postponed until it is safe to mingle again and new dates can be arranged with the Tutors. Please consider booking these or even pre-booking places as Workshop income is Impress Printmakers Studio and Gallery's major source of income and we will have very limited income for the duration of this health crisis and  economic hibernation. Similarly many Tutors are reliant on intermittent work for income and to support their artistic practice.
MOBS are cancelled for the time being and if using the studio please limit power and water use to conserve resources. Do you need the air conditioner, now it is cooler?
