From the date of incorporation in 1997, the Warringah Printmakers Studio has operated as an open community facility offering classes, studio space for hire, custom printing services and opportunities to exhibit for all students and hirers. The Studio provides a venue for many talented people, including established artists who avail themselves of the excellent facilities. Ongoing in the Studio’s development is a commitment to safer printmaking practice. A grant from Warringah Council enabled the Studio to introduce alternative methods and materials. These include etching aluminium and zinc plate with copper sulphate and using vegetable oil and a vegetable cleaning agent to clean printmaking tools and equipment. Further safe methods are constantly being researched and introduced.

Community involvement and education is an important aspect of the Studio’s makeup and most projects undertaken by the Studio tend to reflect a strong community focus. The accomplishment of these projects relies strongly on the work and efforts of volunteers and the funding provided by successful grant applications. Opportunities to be involved in community arts projects such as providing classes to high school students, working with artists from other cultural groups and collaborative works, are enthusiastically welcomed by the Studio Management Committee.

Warringah Printmakers Studio has started to develop an international profile with initiatives directed at establishing ongoing networks with printmakers and printmaking groups around the world. The creative energy generated by diverse artists, teachers and students committed to producing original prints of high quality ensures the continuance of Warringah Printmakers Studio as a community art centre of merit.
