Printmaking Open Studio

Drop-in printmaking open studio for independent work. Monitor on site to assist. Prior press experience or SCC workshop required.

Printmaking Open Studio is uninstructed time for you to work independently. A studio monitor is on site and available to answer questions and provide assistance as needed.

All participants are expected to already have basic skills in using the presses and tools. Either through past experience in another print studio or college facility, or by taking a hands-on workshop or class at the Sonoma Community Center.

New guests will be contacted by our studio coordinator to discuss a session before arrival.

If you are new to printmaking, and interested in arranging a special project or scheduling private, instructed printmaking studio sessions, please contact our Studio Coordinator for more information and pricing: [email protected]


Studio Guidelines & FAQ

We ask that you notify us at least 10 days in advance of a class if you need to cancel your registration. You may cancel by phone or email and we will gladly offer you a refund or credit toward a future class. If you cancel with less than 10 days’ notice, we will not be able to provide refunds, due to our contractual obligations and material purchases for each class.

Sometimes, the Sonoma Community Center has to cancel a class due to low enrollment or unforeseen circumstances, such as a natural disaster or health emergency. If this happens and we do not offer a reschedule date, you will be refunded 100% of your registration fee (minus the payment processing and services fee), or credit towards a future class. If we are able to offer a reschedule date but you are unable to make the new date, we will gladly offer credit towards a future class.

All credits must be used within 1 year.
