Our Friends Programme

Graphic Studio Dublin engages in collaborative discussion and explores ways of promoting printmaking as an artform within the context of contemporary visual arts in Ireland.

By joining our Friends Programme you are helping to realise our vision of enhancing cultural experience by fostering, sharing and presenting creative excellence through printmaking, while supporting a great community of leading artists.

We provide creative, educational and engagement opportunities for artists and the public to explore printmaking. Graphic Studio Dublin, a not-for-profit organisation funded by the Arts Council, supports over ninety artist members at all career stages.

Printmaking facilities are available to artists for etching, screenprinting, photo intaglio, carborundum, linoprint, woodcut, mokuhanga, letterpress, mezzotint, lithography with full technical support from our Master printers.

Graphic Studio Dublin is the largest Irish Printmaking studio with a gallery dedicated to presenting fine-art print. We value equality, diversity and inclusion, individuality in practise and diverse social and cultural traditions.
