Annual membership with Swansea Print Workshop allows access to our well-equipped printmaking studio for independent use during our Open Access sessions.  All levels of membership receive the following:

• Discount on course fees
• Priority booking for our workshops
• Access to buy specialist papers, tools and supplies
• Eligibility to enter exhibitions and projects (subject to stated conditions)
• Regular newsletter (unless you opt out) which keeps you up to date with SPW news on workshops, exhibitions and other opportunities.

ALL membership levels attract a range of benefits which may include eligibility to participate in exhibitions and projects, discounted fees for workshops and other activities including Life Drawing classes, selling work through our Art Shop at 19a and the online gallery. The higher the level of membership – the greater the benefits.

Swansea Print Workshop is not publicly funded and membership fees are our main – and vital – source of income. Without these, we could not continue and we are grateful for your support. We will keep you up to date on all our activities through newsletters and mailshots and you can choose to be involved in the running of the workshop.

Keyholder membership – our most flexible membership, offering 24/7 access. For experienced printmakers only subject to management approval. Please contact us (see Keeping in Touch) if you think Keyholder Membership may be the membership level right for you. Keyholder members must be thoroughly conversant with the studio and the relevant equipment for the technique/s they work in as this level of membership carries responsibility for health and safety and security of the building while you are working independently. We have no staff so there is no technical support outside Open Access sessions. You will receive the same benefits as a Full Member with additionally:

• Reduced fees for Open Access sessions @ £1.50 an hour
• Studio Access 24/7
• A free annual solo or group show (with other Full or Keyholder Members) in The Drawing Room or digital Gallery. Please contact us with any proposals

• Reduced fees for workshops: For example: 2 day screenprinting workshop | Keyholder and Full Members £120 | Ordinary members £140 | Non-members £160
