Founded in 1970, Open Studio is a Toronto-based artist-run centre and non-profit organization dedicated to contemporary printmaking. Located at 401 Richmond Street West, Open Studio provides access to specialized printmaking facilities and creates opportunities for the public to discover and engage with printmaking through exhibitions, education, and public programming.
Our studio supports a wide range of printmaking processes, including screenprinting, relief printmaking, intaglio, lithography, and letterpress. We also welcome artists working in print-adjacent, paper-based, and related creative practices. The studio brings together a community of artists who work independently alongside one another, sharing space, resources, and ideas. The Open Studio Shop provides artists with an opportunity to sell their work while contributing to the sustainability of the studio.
Through free exhibitions, affordable education programs, and access to a shared creative studio, Open Studio invites people to experience print, learn about the medium, and engage with the printmaking community.
