Message from the Chair
As we reflect on the past year at West Yorkshire Print Workshop, I am struck by the energy, creativity, and resilience that has continued to define our organisation. 2024–25 has been a year of celebration and ambition, marking 40 years of printmaking excellence and looking forward to exciting new opportunities.
Our exhibitions, workshops and community engagement have continued to demonstrate the vital role West Yorkshire Print Workshop plays in supporting artists, engaging young people, and bringing the joy of printmaking to audiences of all ages. From the international reach of our 20:20 exhibition to the sheer delight of local families participating in the Kids Takeover , WYPW is a space where creativity thrives, and communities come together.
Our funders and supporters have enabled us to expand our impact during the past twelve months. We are especially grateful to Arts Council England (ACE) for granting our National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) funding. As this report shows, we have had a busy second year of delivery, exceeding the targets set out in our NPO outcomes plan. In addition to our NPO funding, ACE also awarded us £114,000 in capital investment. This crucial funding allows us to invest in our facilities and infrastructure as we grow, ensuring we can deliver our future programme and create a welcoming, sustainable home for our community for years to come.
This year has also reminded us of the importance of resilience and adaptability. With staff changes, ongoing building challenges and shifting funding landscapes, the team has shown remarkable dedication, delivering a substantial programming offer with creativity, flair and warmth. Our studio holders, participants, volunteers and members have remained at the heart of everything we do, and I want to thank everyone who has dedicated their time and energy to our work during the past twelve months.
We are immensely grateful to our board members for their dedication and commitment to West Yorkshire Print Workshop. Your insight, support and proactive engagement have been invaluable in supporting our development. Sincere thanks go to Kath WynneHague, who stepped down from the board this year. I warmly welcome our new trustees, Laura Mateescu and studio representative, artist, Liadin Cooke. We look forward to working with you both.
Looking ahead, we are excited by the opportunities for growth and innovation, whether through ambitious capital projects, new partnerships, or expanded engagement with local schools and communities. I am confident that with our dedicated team and engaged community, we will continue to make a lasting impact on the cultural landscape of West Yorkshire and beyond.

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Clare Alton-Fletcher (Director, 2021-25) for her tireless commitment and dedication to West Yorkshire Print Workshop. It has been a great pleasure to work with Clare and her creative, hardworking and creative team. Together, we look forward to an exciting year ahead.
With warm wishes

2024/25 Let’s Create! Year 2 of the NPO Plan

The 2024–25 NPO year has been a productive and ambitious period for West Yorkshire Print Workshop, with programme delivery remaining firmly on track and exceeding expectations in many areas. Our exhibition programme has continued to reflect the breadth and vitality of contemporary printmaking practice. Highlights include our 20:20 international exhibition, which represented the work of 644 artists and culminated in a highly successful Kids Takeover event, providing young audiences with hands-on creative engagement and an immersive introduction to printmaking. In addition, Lidija Antanasejivic’s solo exhibition, Greener Grass , presented as part of our fortieth birthday celebrations, attracted around 800 visitors and demonstrated our ongoing commitment to supporting contemporary artists working at the forefront of printmaking.
Touring exhibitions, such as Flourish , have enabled WYPW to extend its reach across the North of England, further consolidating our national profile and reinforcing our
6
position as a key centre for printmaking. These exhibitions have not only introduced high-quality work to new audiences but have also created opportunities for dialogue, education and collaboration with other institutions and communities.

Our courses and workshops have continued to grow in scope and popularity, reflecting both demand and our commitment to broadening participation. Sales increased notably during the autumn and winter months, and initiatives such as our Foundation Fridays in Huddersfield have successfully introduced new audiences to printmaking at an accessible price point. These sessions have been particularly effective in engaging local communities, encouraging experimentation, and providing a welcoming environment for beginners and more experienced practitioners. Beyond general courses, we have continued to provide structured opportunities for young people, schools and emerging creatives through workshops, residencies and placements. The Creative Graduate Mentoring Scheme has supported early-career artists in developing professional skills and networks, while student placements have offered practical experience and enriched creative learning opportunities for local schools and young people.
Commissioned projects remain a core part of our work, reinforcing WYPW’s role as a cultural partner both within Kirklees and across the region. Projects such as the PACE workshops, the Winter Worlds event, and National Media Museum’s Bedtime Stories initiative have provided an invigorating mix of artistic, educational and communityfocused activities. These projects not only extend our reach into diverse communities
7
but also strengthen our reputation as a valued partner in cross-sector and interdisciplinary initiatives, blending creativity with engagement and learning opportunities.
Audience engagement has been robust across the programme. Total participation for 2024–25 has exceeded 13,000, encompassing exhibition visitors, course participants, and attendees at fairs and festivals. This demonstrates the continued appetite for printmaking and the relevance of WYPW’s offer. Our focus on accessibility, inclusivity and high-quality programming has ensured that participants of all ages and backgrounds can engage meaningfully with our work, whether through hands-on activity, critical discussion, or enjoying our exhibition programmes.
The achievements of this year have been made possible through the dedication of our team, the support of our funders, and the commitment of our board and volunteers. As we look ahead, we remain focused on expanding our programme, deepening community engagement, and continuing to support artists and audiences alike, ensuring that WYPW remains a thriving and influential hub for printmaking locally, nationally and internationally.

Widening our reach
WYPW has continued to expand its audience base across 2024–25, strengthening its roots within local communities while reaching new groups across West Yorkshire. Commissioned projects, festivals and outreach initiatives have attracted a diverse range of participants, including young people, families, older learners and underrepresented communities who may not otherwise have access to creative experiences. Pride 2024, Refugee Week and Winter Worlds each brought hundreds - sometimes thousands - of participants into contact with printmaking in playful and inclusive ways. On 19 October 2024, we staged our first Print and Zine Fair at the Creative Piazza in Huddersfield. These events not only showcased the versatility of print but also demonstrated WYPW’s ability to respond creatively to the interests and needs of different communities.
Winter Worlds event, curated by WYPW and supported by Kirklees Council: 30 November 2024. This event attracted an estimated 3000 people to the Creative Piazza in Huddersfield.
Our work with local schools has continued to develop during 2024–25, with initiatives such as staff training, a full day of printmaking, and a parent session at Holly Bank School—a residential special educational needs school—reinforcing our role in building meaningful partnerships and advancing creative learning.
Membership now stands at 127, supported by the renewal of our educational group membership from Crowlees School, signalling that institutions continue to see longterm value in our offer. Engagement has also been bolstered by an active and committed volunteer network and strong collaboration with community and creative partners. Groups such as the Support to Recovery garden project, Creative Piazza partners, and local arts organisations have helped to broaden participation, strengthen connections, and extend our reach into new neighbourhoods. Together, these collective efforts have supported a vibrant, growing, and increasingly diverse WYPW community.

Quality & Ambition
WYPW’s commitment to quality and artistic ambition continues to shine through every aspect of our programme: from exhibitions and workshops, to commissions, partnerships and professional development. This year’s activity reflects a deep investment in both technical excellence and creative exploration. The breadth of techniques offered, including Riso, electro etching, photo lino-etching, Japanese printmaking processes, screen printing, and experimental mono-printing, demonstrates not only the strength of our facilities but also the organisation’s drive to champion innovation. By supporting both traditional methods and emerging approaches, WYPW provides artists and participants with opportunities to push boundaries, develop new skills and expand their creative vocabulary.
Professional development for staff and volunteers has remained a priority. Training in specialist print techniques, health and safety, and digital processes ensures that the organisation continues to operate at a high standard and remains forward-looking. This focus on learning enhances confidence, consistency and expertise across the team, ultimately enriching the experience for everyone who visits or works with WYPW.
Our fortieth anniversary celebrations offered a powerful platform to reflect on the organisation’s legacy while signalling its ambitions for the future. Exhibitions such as Greener Grass and A Sense of Place (25 Jan – 22 Mar 2025) exemplified WYPW’s ability to deliver programming that is both locally grounded and nationally significant. These shows connected audiences to contemporary concerns (environmental change, identity, landscape) while spotlighting emerging and mid-career artists whose work resonates with communities across Kirklees and beyond.
Through these initiatives, WYPW continues to nurture new talent, foster intergenerational learning and cultivate meaningful artistic exchange. Young audiences have engaged through hands-on opportunities, creative experimentation, and inclusive events that encourage them to see printmaking as a dynamic, expressive, and accessible artform. The organisation’s commitment to quality and ambition not only strengthens its reputation but also ensures that WYPW remains a vital and influential presence within the local and national cultural landscape.

Infrastructure, Planning & Capital Funding
This year has witnessed exciting progress in advancing WYPW’s long-term ambitions and capital development plans. Our £114k ACE Capital project is now underway, with a strong focus on our core values: inclusion, access and environmental sustainability. This investment represents a significant milestone for WYPW, enabling us to upgrade essential facilities and lay the foundations for the next phase of our development.
We have also strengthened our forward planning by engaging with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Following constructive pre-application advice, we are preparing a £45k application centred on business modelling, site options and relocation planning. This work is crucial in ensuring WYPW’s long-term sustainability and will help us identify the best possible future home for the organisation.
Our grant applications have been proactive and targeted to build resilience and support long-term growth. Funding from One Community, for example, has enabled the extension of the Huddersfield-based Print Technician role, ensuring consistent programme delivery and key technical support.
Alongside these developments, our refined mission statement has been shared with key stakeholders, reinforcing our direction of travel and positioning WYPW strongly for future advocacy and funding opportunities both within Kirklees and nationally. It has already supported clearer communication of our purpose and ambition, helping us articulate the value WYPW brings to artists, participants, partners and the wider cultural landscape.
The leadership team continues to explore funding opportunities and potential partnerships. Our approach remains strategic and evidence-based, ensuring that all decisions are financially robust and aligned with our commitment to supporting artists, nurturing audiences and building creative communities through printmaking.

Studios & Buildings
All available studios at WYPW remained full during 2024/25, with a long waiting list. Studio 6B remained closed due to maintenance work needed. In Huddersfield, we have welcomed our first studio holder, artist Rozi Fuller, marking an important milestone in establishing a creative community within the space. This development has already begun to demonstrate the value of on-site artistic presence, encouraging peer interaction and helping to further activate the building. Alongside these developments, a full review of studio rents has been undertaken, resulting in a modest 4% increase. This adjustment reflects rising operational and cost-of-living pressures, while ensuring affordability and continued support for artists.
Building management remains a key operational priority, with significant progress made this period. Attention is being given to ongoing issues such as leaks, routine maintenance and minor repairs, all of which are essential to preserving the functionality and security of the sites. At Mirfield, a programme of gutter clearing, roof repair and pest management is in progress, supported by the invaluable contributions of volunteers who continue to maintain and improve the garden areas. Strategic planning for the Huddersfield premises is underway ahead of the anticipated end of the current lease, with potential relocation options being explored and opportunities linked to the National Lottery Heritage Fund on the horizon.

Finance and Governance
Income in 2024/25 increased from £208,555 in 2023/24 to £258,224 in 2024/25. This growth is predominantly due to an increase in grant funding, which rose from £117,214 to £156,307, and continued strong income from courses (£43,775). Other areas of income (including rental, gallery and exhibition income, workshop hire and outreach activity) also contributed to the overall growth.
Expenditure has increased in 2024/25 in line with planned activity, rising from £197,269 in 2023/24 to £246,837. This increase reflects investment in wages and salaries, outreach and course costs, and operational expenses such as lighting and heating, repairs and materials. Despite this, WYPW remains in a stable financial position, with the closing balance for the year providing continuity and a solid foundation for planning in 2025/26.
On 31 March 2025, unrestricted reserves stood at £28,312, a slight decrease on 2023/24 (£31,135). While the current climate limits our ability to substantially grow reserves, the current level provides a secure baseline, and plans are in place to increase reserves gradually in future years.
We would like to thank our accountants, TaxAssist of Mirfield, for their professional and reliable support. WYPW also wishes to thank Tom Ratcliffe for his ongoing role as Treasurer on the WYPW Board.

Looking ahead to 2025/26
Looking ahead to 2025/26, WYPW will build on its NPO delivery, expanding audience reach and strengthening financial and operational resilience. This period will be one of both consolidation and strategic development, ensuring that the organisation continues to deliver high-quality artistic activity while planning confidently for the future. Key priorities include:
-
Completion of capital projects , with particular attention to building improvements and the development of a long-term strategy for relocation of the Huddersfield site.
-
Continued delivery of an ambitious programme of exhibitions, workshops and commissioned projects , with a renewed emphasis on innovation, interdisciplinary practice and meaningful engagement with young people and emerging artists. This will reinforce WYPW’s role as a creative hub that nurtures talent and encourages experimentation.
-
Strengthening partnerships at local, regional and national levels , including collaborations with Creative Piazza, Thread Republic, WOVEN, the University of Huddersfield and other cultural institutions. Deepening these relationships will support shared learning, co-creation and greater visibility for printmaking.
-
Reviewing and refining operational risk registers , covering areas such as staffing, building safety and equipment maintenance. This will enhance organisational resilience and support informed decision-making during a period of change.
-
Sustained advocacy and targeted fundraising, to secure long-term stability and support future organisational growth. This includes exploring new income streams and preparing for major opportunities such as WYPW’s application to The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
WYPW enters 2025–26 in a strong and confident position, with a proven track record of programme delivery, sound financial stewardship and meaningful community impact. Building on its forty-year legacy, the organisation is well placed to embrace new opportunities and support the next generation of printmakers.
