St.Barnabas Press, in Cambridge, offers artists' proofing and professional editioning services, studio space for rental by artists working on individual projects in printmaking or related disciplines and media, and open-access printmaking courses for artists.
The Press was founded in 1993 by James Hill in premises in St Barnabas Road, Cambridge, partly with the aid of a Prince of Wales Trust loan. It initially offered etching and silkscreen printmaking courses and open-access printmaking. Four years later it was possible to expand to make studio space for artists in adjoining buildings.
In 2001 the Press moved to its current, larger premises at Belfast Yard where a good deal of building and development work has taken place to extend the range of processes that can be applied in traditional and innovative printmaking, and in photography.
The Press supports etching, lithography, screenprint and relief printing processes and is developing expertise in multimedia and new printing technologies. There is scope for preparation and manipulation of images on computer for transfer to photostencil processes.

Dry-point James Hill James will be sharing some of his secrets on Dry-point printing. This technique of drawing directly onto the plate using a carbon steel point (dry-point needle) can form soft subtle lines to velvety dark lines created by burrs that hold the ink, or energetic aggressive lines that make dry-point a characterful and expressive medium.
