We receive multiyear funding from Creative Scotland and strategic partnership funding from the City of Edinburgh Council. Our vision is to help shape a better world through widening access to printmaking and the arts. Our mission is to support diverse artists and communities to contribute to the cultural life of the nation via world-class facilities, access to national and international networks and exceptional models of support. We operate studios in Edinburgh and across Scotland.
