Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone knows of a place in Tokyo where you can hire a space to screen print things yourself?
Either being able to hire the facilities for an hour or two, or becoming a member and paying a monthly fee etc.

Any recommendations are greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Hi Andrew,

I know 2 institutions for screen printing.

- Machida city museum of graphic art
http://hanga-museum.jp/english
this was very comfortable but I am not sure that they are supporting in English, seemingly the English site isn't friendly.
Required reservation and ¥2400 per day.
They have all items and tools without frame and screen canvas.
- Yokohama museum
http://yokohama.art.museum/eng/education/citizen.html
I haven't been there before you can try it.

Hope it will be useful:)

Hi all,
Andrew Joyce Takako Kuwahara Fern Choonet
I've started looking into the practicalities of setting up a studio for printing and have looked at a studio previously used for screen printing in particular. Initially I'm focusing on posters as its a far simpler set up than t-shirt printing. Let me know if any of you are interested and perhaps we can pool resources or at the very least talk about our common passion!
Speak soon,
Tom

Max 3 people can work there at the same time.
The location is in Nerima. Hope this information is useful for you!

Hi there,
Thank you for sharing usefull information
I will share another one here.
http://makers-base.com
There are many workshops including screen printing. I think it is good induction for taking new and basic techniques. They also have a monthly member ship service. However it is a bit pricey for me :p

Hope it will be usefull for someone!

I difinatlly agree that we can pool cariative resauces in here around Tokyo.

I think I met some folks from Makers Base in the Aki-Oka Artisan stalls... I will contact them to see if renting only is possible. Thanks Miki

After some more searching I found this directory, which might be helpful to us and/or others in Canvas:
