Our vision: to Inspire and enable innovative printmakers
Founded 25 years ago by the Baldessin Family, today the Baldessin Press & Studio runs as an independent social enterprise.
Baldessin Press & Studio is more than a printmaking workshop — it's a vital home for artists, a place of learning, experimentation, and community. As a non-profit open-access printmaking studio that is a Registered Charity with Deductible Gift Recipient status, all donations over $2 are tax deductible.
EVERY WORKSHOP WE RUN, EVERY PRESS WE MAINTAIN AND EVERY RESIDENCY WE SUPPORT, IS MADE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE GENEROSITY OF OUR COMMUNITY.
The Baldessin Studio exists to support printmakers at every stage of their practice, from emerging voices to established artists, and we keep the doors open with the support of many volunteers. Our Committee of Management are our primary Volunteers – without their contribution we could not operate. We employ a Studio manager two days a week - but to run the studio, it’s a seven day a week job.
We need your help!
Our income is primarily generated through our workshop and access, donations, sponsorships However, we need your help to continue providing affordable access to specialised equipment, professional development opportunities, and a collaborative environment where printmaking thrives.
