Riso Foldy Comic

About this event

In this analog drawing Risograph workshop, you'll learn to create dynamic, interactive booklets using the "foldy" format—a 5-page comic made from a single sheet of 11 x 17 paper. We'll begin with demonstrations on cutting, folding, and designing booklets that take advantage of Risograph's unique print qualities. Explore how the unfolding format, changing scale, and reader interaction can enhance your storytelling.

Please note: Masking is now encouraged, but optional in the studio space. Individuals who feel uncomfortable using the space with others unmasked, whether for health or any other reason, are welcome to request mask wearing while they are using the studio space.
