RUNNING JUMP PRINT WORKSHOP ~ Newsletter 5 May 2024
There is still a lot to do, but Running Jump has come so far already!
The first thing a Print Workshop needs is presses. Thanks to Nancy and Ben and Giles from AMR Logan Press, we have now installed a splendid Hunter Penrose etching press & a beautiful Albion Press, dating from 1863. The Marler screen printing press is ready for action too.
GETTING READY
Over the next month we will be working on other aspects of the studio, making sure the presses are properly set up, installing new furniture and facilities.
We are also working on our web site and setting up our social media.
Although Running Jump won’t open fully until the beginning of August, the workshop will begin to offer limited access to experienced printmakers from the beginning to June. All users of the workshop will be provided with a full induction.
RUNNING JUMP PRINT WORKSHOP ~ Open Day 1 June 10:00 – 4:00
To celebrate the progress we have made so far and to give you a chance to see North London’s new Print Workshop for yourself, we will hold an Open Day on Saturday 1 June. Please come along to see the workshop and presses and talk about our plans for the future.

RUNNING JUMP PRINT WORKSHOP ~ we need your input
If you are thinking of using the workshop, I’d love to hear from you.
Running Jump will provide newsprint, materials for setting up and cleaning screens, scrim and cleaning materials, but it would be really useful to know what else you would expect the workshop to provide. For example
* If you are a screen printer, do you have your own screens or would you expect to use ours?
* Would you like us to provide inks or will you bring your own?
* Would you like us to provide paper for your printmaking?
