An Atlas of Modern Risography
This is an interactive directory of publishers, print shops, and studios that use stencil duplicators creatively.
You can help keep the map up to date by adding new places or editing existing ones. To show up on the map, a place must be active and have coordinates. As part of an update in September 2025, all places need to be verified that their information is accurate. You can help verify imported places, just refer to the help documents about validating a place for guidance.
Other resources
The Events page hosts a global calendar of art book fairs, zine fests, comics events, workshops, and exhibitions with a focus on stencil printing.
The Inks section hosts an overview of the colors of inks for risograph and other types of stencil printing, and you can also search print studios and shops by ink color.
You can also browse or add to Resources, Tutorials, and Equipment useful for stencil printing and related printmaking and bindery tasks related to artist publishing with stencil methods.
