Our primary aim is to support artists and creative businesses by providing open and accessible printmaking facilities, affordable studio spaces and exhibiting opportunities for members. WYPW is also an equal opportunities organisation.
We provide a regular programme of educational workshops which includes specialised printmaking courses as well as more general art and craft courses. We have three main printing rooms as well as a large community room which is used to host larger workshops and activities, as well as special events and exhibitions.
Opening Times: Tuesday: 10.30am - 10pm, Wednesday: 10.30am - 6pm, Thursday: 10.30am - 6pm and Saturday by arrangement (for members only).
