About this Event

Risograph Maintenance Workshop, with Robert Baxter

In this 3-hour session for press operators we'll go over standard techniques, policies, and tools for maintaining a risograph, along with basic parts replacement, common repairs, and drum safety. These tactical skills will be grounded in philosophies of repair and best practices when running a duplicator.

This workshop is brought to you by PRINT TIME, a monthlong exhibition and programming series dedicated to print culture, community publishing, and their surrounding ecosystems. Co-organized by FORTUNE, Ulises, and Icebox Project Space, with generous support from the Penn Treaty Special Services District and Fire Museum Presents.

PRINT TIME will feature an exhibition featuring large print studies by Erik Ruin, Jarrah May, Kocot & Hatton, and Olivia Fredricks — open during Icebox Project Space’s gallery hours (Thursday–Saturday, 12–6PM). Register for our free workshops, each weekend in July, to practice the possibilities of print. And, come to our Big Summer Book Sale on PRINT TIME’s closing day (Sunday, July 27, 11AM–5PM) to visit 30 vendors who print in multiples, toward manifold means of learning.

Robert Baxter makes small books of small pedagogies — he practices as an independent publisher and public academic. His own work focuses on access to resources and navigating texts + archives + creative practice — his collaborations with friends share collective research, projects, and histories. He is now a traveling act, operating as both an itinerant printer and as a general laborer (and mechanic) in community print spaces.
