WHAT TO EXPECT?Here’s a run down on the schedule for the Riso Basic 101 workshops: ① To get to know each other a little bit, at the start of the workshop we’ll go through short introductions (name, pronouns, and favourite riso colour) and an Access Check-in. (approx: 20-30min) ② Next there will be a short talk and introduction to riso printing history and the machine technology. As well as explanation of how we will be creating our analog originals with lots of time for questions! (approx: 30-40min) ③ Time to create your originals using the provided materials (we’ve got markers, pencils, glue, scissors, collage materials etc.) We’ll listen to some music and get in the art-making zone. (approx: 45min – 1 hour) ④ The printing demo, trimming of the postcards and print exchange! (approx: 20-30min) WHAT TO BRING?Riso Basics 101: nothing required! Optional to bring your own mark making materials (pens/pencils/markers) or scannable collage materials that you would like to use for your postcard print. Phone/Camera: photos and videos are welcome, please tag @MonikerPress :) Show and tell: if you have something that’s Riso or just cool that you want to show/bring for inspiration it’s more than welcome. Sustenance: Up to you, consider if you may want hydration or snacks (careful consumption of non-greasy food and drink is allowed– as long as it’s not too close to paper or books). If you have severe allergies please inform us beforehand so we can let other participants know in advance. WHAT TO WEAR?Anything you like! Please wear a mask and comfy closed-toed shoes for studio safety. Since the studio is in the basement it can be cooler in the winter so an extra layer might be needed. INK COLOURSIn an effort to reduce stencil waste/costs per workshop we’ve combined printing into postcards, which also gives the opportunity for a fun print exchange at the end! When you register you'll be able to vote on the final 2 colour choices between a cool: Medium Blue, Cornflower, Green or Teal and a warm ink: Bright Red, Fl Pink, Orchid or Fl Orange. ACCESSWhen registering please let Moniker Press know if you have any Access Needs. Keep in mind, print shops in general tend to be loud, smell-filled, noisy and bright environments. There may be music playing, overlapping with talking and printer machine noise. We can provide earplugs if needed and welcome the use of personal noise-cancelling headphones, ear muffs, etc. We have some stools and chairs for sitting, fatigue mat for the floor if needed, and suggest wearing comfortable footwear. Workshops are currently in English and audio/spoken communication reliant. Physical space: The Moniker Press studio has a lot of stuff and equipment in it but we will do our best before each workshop to clear enough space for each participant to navigate it safely and comfortably. Stools for seating are provided, chair with back can be provided upon request.

Stanley Park is located in the heart of Vancouver, Canada, and is one of the largest urban parks in North America, covering a thousand acres. The park has more than 400 hectares of forest and is scattered with 500,000 trees, including hundreds of meters of Douglas fir, 800-year-old cedar, moss-dropping maples and a century-old western red cypress. The sea wall trail, which is fully paved with rocks and built by the sea, completely surrounds the entire Stanley Park, which is Vancouver&#39;s most distinctive slow-running trail, bicycle lanes and roller skating routes.

It is really a once-in-a-lifetime train experience. In September 2019, the weather in Canada was very suitable. It was amazing to take a train and experience the colorful mountains. The train company held a grand farewell ceremony before departure for the train at Vancouver Railway Station. This gave me a pleasant surprise. Not only did the train have Chinese service staff to introduce the scenery along the way, but there was also a food experience. Sitting on the train and looking at the scenery of the Rocky Mountains and eating Michelin meals, it really can&#39;t be described in words. The ticket price is indeed not cheap. I was a little hesitant before booking, but after the experience, I felt that the money was worth it. Also, I thought it would be boring on the train before leaving, but I didn&#39;t expect there were still a lot of activities. I couldn&#39;t stop taking pictures, especially the glass dome, which was like watching an IMAX blockbuster. Soon the wonderful day passed. The Queen&#39;s favorite train is indeed well-deserved, making my wife and I feel very noble. . .
