Spend a creative 3 hours at Silly Gooze Editions designing and assembling two custom Riso-printed sketchpads! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll create two beautifully bound A5-ish (180mm x 250mm) sketchbook, combining clean cartridge paper with Risograph-printed covers and creative extras.

Choose from a selection of pre-printed prompt pages illustrated by the brilliant Emma Britten, designed to spark ideas and add personality to your book. Then, as a group, co-design your cover artwork, which we’ll Risograph print in your chosen colours. We’ll finish off your books with a sturdy greyboard back and recycled plastic comb binding – keeping things sustainable and landfill-friendly.

You’ll leave with:
